Abstract
- Objective: To characterize the health-related quality of life reported by patients who received an ileal conduit (IC), Indiana pouch, or neobladder urinary diversion after radical cystectomy.<br />Materials and Methods: The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Vanderbilt Cystectomy Index survey was administered to patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy and urinary diversion from 2015-2018. Surveys were completed prior to radical cystectomy and then longitudinally throughout the postoperative course.<br />Results: A total of 146 patients completed questionnaires over a median of 12.3 months, 83 (56.8%) received an IC, 31 (21.2%) an Indiana pouch, and 32 (21.9%) an orthotopic neobladder. There were no significant differences in health related quality of life among urinary diversion groups considering the Trial Outcome Index scores, general overall FACT-G assessment, or total Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Vanderbilt Cystectomy Index instruments. Patients who received IC were older and had higher Charlson Comorbidity Index scores (p <.005) yet still experienced similar improvements in health related quality of life commensurate with the other diversion cohorts. There was a significant difference in physical well-being favoring neobladder over IC or Indiana Pouch urinary diversions (p <.05).<br />Conclusions: To our knowledge this is the first and largest quality of life analysis comparing all three methods of urinary diversion in a longitudinal fashion utilizing a standardized, validated, treatment-specific health survey. Proper preoperative counseling is critical to ensure understanding of the benefits of available urinary diversion.<br /> (Published by Elsevier Inc.)
