Outcomes of Surgical Therapy for Local Recurrence and Oligometastatic Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder: 20 Years of Experience in a Tertiary Center

Abstract

Our study shows reasonable surgical and survival outcomes of metastasectomy, especially in the metachronous subgroup, for UC without risk of higher perioperative morbidity. On the other hand, resection of local recurrence is associated with a higher risk of incomplete resection and higher intraoperative and postoperative morbidity without offering a survival benefit.
