The role of chemotherapy and radiation in organ-preservation strategies for muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Abstract:

:Radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection has been accepted as the standard treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy are increasingly being implemented in bladder-preservation protocols to provide an alternative treatment to cystectomy. We review experience with radiation and chemotherapy in treating bladder cancer and their use in bladder-preservation protocols. Multimodality organ-sparing treatment strategies offer overall survival rates comparable to radical cystectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection in selected cases. However, bladder-preservation techniques risk local recurrence of potentially aggressive tumors whose long-term effect on cancer-specific survival has not been fully characterized. No improvement in quality of life has clearly been demonstrated with bladder-preservation regimens. Bladder-preservation protocols are costly and require precise coordination of multiple specialists as well as strict, life-long patient compliance. Bladder-preservation protocols should only be performed at tertiary care centers with experience in their administration and be limited to patients desiring an alternative cystectomy or who are not surgical candidates.
