Utilization and Perioperative Outcomes of Partial Cystectomy for Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder: Lessons from the ACS NSQIP Database

The ratio of the number of partial to radical cystectomies performed was stable. Cerebrovascular accident history, nonsmoker status and lack of trainee participation were associated with partial cystectomy. Patients treated with radical cystectomy but not those who underwent partial cystectomy were more likely to receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy in later years. Large detailed registries such as ACS NSQIP have important potential use for evaluating trends in urological practice.
