Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer: A Contemporary Series

Abstract: Bladder cancer can be categorized into organ confined and nonorgan confined tumors. This dichotomous grouping is better suited for evaluating adjuvant clinical trials. The pT stage of the bladder and prostate should be prospectively analyzed together to better define the clinical implications of prostatic involvement. In our opinion the histological subtypes do not affect outcome.

“…52 Data that have accumulated in the 47 years since this original publication do not appear to support the subdivision of T2 by depth of muscularis propria invasion (Table 2). 5, During a mean follow-up of 8.3 years, Cheng et al 85 found no survival difference between pT2a and pT2b cancer ( Figure 14). Ten-year cancer specific survival rates were 82 and 81%, respectively, for patients with pT2a and pT2b bladder cancer.…”

“…The incidence of stage pT0 bladder carcinoma is approximately 10%. 5,[10][11][12][13][14] Unlike stage pT0 cancer of the prostate (so called 'vanishing cancer phenomenon'), the clinical outcome among patients with stage pT0 bladder cancer is variable. In the largest series of pT0 carcinomas (120 patients), the 5-year recurrence-free, cancer-specific, and overall survivals were 84, 88, and 84%, respectively.…”

“…5a, Table 2). Urothelial carcinoma has long been known to have a remarkable propensity for divergent differentiation, which is seen most commonly in association with high-grade and locally advanced disease [59][60][61][62]. The incidence of divergent differentiation in cystectomy specimens is as high as 33%.…”

“…3 Currently, radical cystectomy (RC) is the standard of care for the management of organ-confined muscle invasive or high-risk superficial disease. [4][5][6][7][8] About 10% of patients (range: 5-20) will have no evidence of tumour at pathological examination of the cystectomy specimen; such patients are designated stage pT0. 6,[8][9][10] The clinical outcomes and significance of patients with stage pT0 disease at cystectomy is unclear.…”
