We sought to investigate the predictors of successful endoscopic management for UES after RARC. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed our RARC database and identified patients who developed UES. All patients were initially managed with an endoscopic/percutaneous approach. Successful management was defined as absence of significant urinary tract obstruction on postoperative imaging. Data was reviewed for demographics operative approach, and perioperative outcomes. A logistic regression model was fit to evaluate predictors for successful endoscopic management. RESULTS Our database included 418 patients. UES were identified in 51 (12%) patients. Median time to UES following RARC was 5 months (IQR 2-12). Median time to primary management was 22 (IQR 4-54) days after diagnosis. Sixteen patients had a robot-assisted (RA) repair and 6 had open (Table 1). Thirty three patients had successful management of UES after an average of 2 procedures (endoscopic 13; robot-assisted revision 15; and open revision 5) (Figure 1). Only female gender (OR 0.13, 95% CI 0.03-0.56, p=0.007) and BMI (OR 0.88, 95% CI 0.77-0.99, p=0.05) were significant predictors of successful endoscopic management. CONCLUSIONS None of the stricture characteristics or the cancer stage predicted successful endoscopic management of UES after RARC. Only patient-related factors (male gender and lower BMI) were associated with successful endoscopic management. © 2017FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited byHautmann R (2017) Declining Use of Orthotopic Reconstruction Worldwide—What Went Wrong?Journal of Urology, VOL. 199, NO. 4, (900-903), Online publication date: 1-Apr-2018.
