Oncologic impact of delay between diagnosis and radical nephroureterectomy

Abstract: PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the oncological outcome of delayed surgical wait time from the diagnosis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) to radical nephroureterectomy (RNU).MethodsIn this multicenter retrospective study, medical records were collected between 1988 and 2021 from 18 participating Taiwanese hospitals under the Taiwan UTUC Collaboration Group. Patients were dichotomized into the early (≤90 days) and late (>90 days) surgical wait-time groups. Overall survival, disease-free sur… Show more

“…Even after RNU, recurrence in the bladder occurs in 22–47% of UTUC patients ( 5 ), compared with 2–6% in the contralateral upper tract ( 6 ). Five-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates are only 50–80% ( 7 , 8 ).…”
