Zusammenfassung

Das Blasenkarzinom kommt v. a. bei Patienten zwischen dem 70. und 80. Lebensjahr vor. Die radikale Zystektomie stellt derzeit den Goldstandard bei der Therapie des muskelinvasiven Blasenkarzinoms dar. In diesem Beitrag wurden die verschiedensten Aspekte der radikalen Zystektomie im Alter untersucht. In der Datenbank von Pubmed-MEDLINE wurde nach Publikationen mit folgenden Schlüsselwörtern gesucht: „radical“, „cystectomy“, „elderly“, „age“.

Abstract

Bladder cancer is a carcinoma of the elderly population. The highest incidence of bladder cancer is between the ages of 70 and 80 years old. Radical cystectomy remains the gold standard for muscle invasive bladder cancer treatment. In this article different aspects of radical cystectomy in elderly patients are reviewed. The Pubmed-MEDLINE database was searched using the following keywords: radical, cystectomy, elderly and age.
