Operative duration has been evaluated as a potentially modifiable risk factor for postoperative complications. We assess the operative time in patients undergoing radical cystectomy and its impact on 90-day postoperative complications and readmission rates. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study including 296 patients undergoing radical cystectomy and urinary diversion from 2010 to 2018 in our institution. Operative time 369 minutes was set as a cutoff value between short and long operative time groups. Primary outcome was 90-day postoperative complication rates. Secondary outcomes were gastrointestinal recovery time, length of hospital stay (LOS), and 90-day readmission rates. RESULTS: The overall incidence of 90-day postoperative complications was 80.4% where 63.2% representing minor complications, and 36.8% representing major complications. GIT and infectious complications are the most common complications in our data set (45.9%, 45.6%, respectively). On multivariable analysis, prolonged operative time was significantly associated with odds of high-grade complications (OR 2.340, 95% CI 1.288-4.250, p=0.005) even with adjusted other variables (table 1). A higher incidence of major complications was identified in the long operative time group 69 (42.6%) compared to 40 (30.5 %) in the short operative time group (p=0.034). Though, a shorter GIT recovery time was noticed in the short operative time group (p=0.026), no differences in LOS between both groups. Prolonged operative time was associated with a higher 90-day readmission rate on univariate and multivariate analysis (p=0.001, p<0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged operative time (> 369 min.) is associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications and readmission rates. Optimization of operative time could translate into better operative outcomes.
