Abstract
Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, we evaluated cancer-specific mortality (CSM) in 248 patients with T1-T2NOMO variant histology bladder cancer (non urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder [UCUB]) treated with partial cystectomy (PC). In Cox regression models, patients with non-UCUB treated with PC exhibited higher CSM compared with patients with urothelial carcinoma treated with PC. In contrast, patients with non-UCUB treated with PC had similar CSM compared with patients with non-UCUB treated with radical cystectomy. Background: The present study tested cancer-specific (CSM) and overall mortality (OM) after partial cystectomy (PC) for variant histology bladder cancer (non-urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder UCUB), relative to UCUB and relative to radical cystectomy (RC). Materials and Methods: Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry (2001-2016), we identified patients with stage T1-T2N0M0 non-UCUB and UCUB who had undergone PC or RC. Non-UCUB included adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma, and other histologic subtypes. First, CSM and OM after PC were compared between the non-UCUB and UCUB groups. Second, CSM and OM after PC were compared with RC in the non-UCUB group. Kaplan Meier plots and multivariable Cox regression models were used before and after inverse probability of treatment weighting. Results: Overall, 248 patients (16.3%) treated with PC had had non-UCUB. Of the 248 cases, 115 (46.5%), 50 (20%), 34 (14%), and 49 (19.5%) were adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma, and other histologic subtypes, respectively. The comparison between PC in the non-UCUB and PC in the UCUB group showed higher CSM (hazard ratio, 1.4; P = .03) but the same OM rates (hazard ratio, 1.1; P = .7) in the non-UCUB group. The comparison between PC and RC for the non-UCUB group showed no CSM or OM differences. Conclusions: PC for non-UCUB was associated with higher CSM compared with PC for UCUB. However, PC instead of RC for select patients with non-UCUB appears not to undermine cancer-control outcomes. Thus, the excess CSM is probably unrelated to cystectomy type but could originate from differences in the tumor biology.
