Abstract | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: METHODS: In total 188 patients with invasive bladder cancer treated in the Department of Urology, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from January 2000 to December 2007 with modified radical cystectomy and urinary diversion were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were followed up for 2 to 97 months, with a median of 31 months. RESULTS: The operative time was 120-525 min, with a median of 300 min. Blood transfusion was required in 39.9% of the patients. There was no operation-related death. The 5-year recurrence free and 5-year overall survival rates were 74.9% and 71.5%, respectively. The 5-year and overall survival were 82.5% and 82.8% for patients with organ-confined bladder cancer, 19.0% and 34.3% for patients with extravesical extension of bladder cancer, 82.2% and 79.1% for lymph node-negative patients, and 25.2% and 11.4% for lymph node positive patients.
