Would YOU take these risks of cystectomy?
The overall rate of complications associated with radical cystectomy may be as high as 2535%; major complications occur at a rate of 5%. The rate of radical cystectomy-related deaths is 13%. Partial cystectomy has a complication rate of 1129%. Some studies have placed the rate of cancer reoccurrence after partial cystectomy at 4080%. https://www.surgeryencyclopedia.com/Ce-Fi/Cystectomy.html#ixzz3viMTcMmX The risk of death and major complications is given. I would choose a milder option first, if possible.
