Abstract:
Objective To review the experience with partial cystectomy combined with chemo-and radiation therapies in the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) to assess the local control and survival rates,and to identify predictive factors for recurrence and survival.Methods From 2002 through 2007,a total of 100 patients with MIBC underwent partial cystectomy combined with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy (PC group).Meanwhile,36 patients with MIBC underwent radical cystectomy (RC group).The clinical and pathological data of these patients were retrospectively reviewed.Primary endpoints were cancer-specific survival (CSS),bladder-intact cancer-specific survival and bladder cancer recurrence.Results The 5-year CSS rate of the entire cohort was 65％,which was higher in PC group than in RC group (68％ vs 55％,P =0.033).In PC group,only 2 patients (2％) were confirmed to have residual tumor at the time of re-evaluation TUR 3 months after partial cystectomy.After a mean of 33.1 months,46 patients (46％) experienced superficial recurrence and 14 patients (14％) developed muscle-invasive recurrence.75％ of recurrence occurred within 16 months.8 patients underwent salvage cystectomy.The 5-year bladder-intact survival rate was 63％ in PC group.In multivariate analysis,the presence of tumor numbers more than 3 and tumors with infiltrating growth pattern were 2 predictive factors for cancer recurrence in PC group.In terms of survival,the presence of tumor numbers more than 3,lymphovascular invasion and partial cystectomy plus ureteral reimplantation (PC plus UR) were significantly associated with 5-y CSS in PC group and PC plus UR was indeed a protective factor for survival.By looking at the entire MIBC cohort,lymphovascular invasion,tumor numbers more than 3,history of superficial bladder cancer and age greater than 70 years old were identified as independent predictive factors for 5-y CSS.Conclusions Combined with adjuvant chemo-and radiation therapies,partial cystectomy might be a alternative to radical cystectomy for the treatment of MIBC,which provides adequate local control in selected patients,as well as acceptable survival rate.
