Abstract Background Radical cystectomy and urinary diversion are the standard surgical treatments for patients with muscle-invasive or high-risk, or recurrent non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Although this approach significantly prolongs patient survival, it can lead to postoperative complications. This study aims to compare the efficacy and complications of bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy with a single subumbilical stoma to those of cutaneous ureterostomy with two stomas and an ileal conduit as a means of urinary diversion after radical cystectomy. The findings of this study will provide valuable information for healthcare providers in selecting the appropriate urinary diversion method for their patients. Methods The clinical data for 108 patients who received bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy with a single subumbilical stoma (ureterostomy with a single stoma group), cutaneous ureterostomy with two stomas (ureterostomy with two stomas group), or an ileal conduit (ileal conduit group) after radical cystectomy were retrospectively analysed. The operative time, pathological stage, survival status, perioperative complication rate, rate of successful first extubation, rehospitalization rate at 6 months after surgery,ostomy-related medical costs,and postoperative quality of life were compared between the three groups of patients. Results A significant difference in the operative time was found between the three groups (P = 0.001). No significant differences in pathological stage, survival status, perioperative complication rate, rehospitalization rate at 6 months after surgery, or bladder cancer index (BCI) score were identified among the three groups. The difference in the successful first extubation rate between the three groups of patients was significant (P = 0.001). Significant differences in ostomy-related medical costs were observed among the three groups of patients (P = 0.006). Conclusion A single subumbilical stoma for bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy after radical cystectomy may result in shorter surgery time, increased success rates for initial catheter removal, and lower medical expenses. However, to confirm these findings, further prospective randomized clinical trials are necessary. |
