Histopathological diagnosis of specimen was transitional cell carcinoma in 25 cases, squamous cell carcinoma in 2 cases and carcinosarcoma in a case. Accuracy rate of clinical staging by pelvic CT scanning was low as 44%, clinical overstaging was 44% and clinical understaging was l2%. Early complication after cystectomy was occurred in l4 cases as wound infection, paralytic ileus, parastomal dermatitis, etc. Late complication was occurred in 8 cases as acute pyelonephritis, stomal stenosis, renal function deterioration and adhesive ileus.
