Summary
Objective: Radical cystectomy (RACE) is an operation with numerous complications. The effort to reduce them led to the introduction of the ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) concept used in colorectal surgery. Our goal is to demonstrate its benefits also in urological operations with interventions on the bowel.
Material and methods: Before inclusion in the study, we evaluated a group of 86 patients who underwent RACE at our institution in the period 1/2017–12/2019. A Bricker ileostomy, a continent Studer reservoir, or a ureterocutaneostomy or nephrostomy were used for urine derivation. Descriptive characteristics (age, gender, Charleson comorbidity index, cigarette abuse, radiotherapy or chemotherapy, transient abdominal surgery) were evaluated. In addition, blood loss, time of surgery and postoperative complications, and length of hospitalization were recorded. Postoperative complications were classified as early and late. We evaluated early complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.
Results: In our group, we recorded a mortality of 1,2 % and a morbidity of 59.3 %. Of these, 41.8 % were early complications. Most of the early complications were grade I and II according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. The most common early complications were paralytic ileus and pneumonia. Of the late complications, stenosis of the ureteroileal anastomosis occurred most often. In 17.4 % of patients, the hospitalization period was longer than 20 days.
Conclusion: The results we achieved before taking into account the ERAS study corresponds to the number of complications reported in the literature. These results will be compared with the set of patients operated on during 2023 in which we will apply the ERAS approach with 80% adherence to the protocol.
