Abstract

Objective

To describe a technique for radical cystectomy with extraperitonealization of orthotopic neobladder (RCEN) that reduces bowel-related complications by preservation of the peritoneum.

Materials and methods

Fifteen patients with non-metastatic bladder cancer underwent RCEN by a peritoneum preserving technique. The study included 13 patients with T1 high-grade bladder cancer and 2 with T2a bladder cancer. To compare perioperative outcomes including bowel-related complications, we also reviewed 15 patients who underwent traditional cystectomy with ileal Studer neobladder who were matched for age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, tumor stage, tumor grade, tumor size, and location. Female genital organs were preserved in five female patients who underwent the RCEN technique.

Results

There was no significant difference between the two cohorts (RECN vs. traditional technique) with respect to age, body mass index, ASA score, or tumor characteristics. The mean operative time was similar between the two groups. The patients who underwent RECN exhibited earlier recovery of normal gas pattern on plain abdominal X-ray during the postoperative period and an earlier resumption of normal diet. The mean hospital stay was shorter in the RECN group than the traditional group.

Conclusions

The RECN technique preserving the whole peritoneum is a feasible approach that significantly reduces bowel-related complications in selected patients.
