ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The modified 5-item frailty index can be used to evaluate frailty using 5 routinely encountered clinical variables. This study aimed to assess the impact of the modified 5-item frailty index in patients who underwent radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
In this multicenter retrospective study, we calculated the modified 5-item frailty index scores of patients who underwent radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma between 2010 and 2022. Patients were categorized into the high (≥2) and low (≤1) modified 5-item frailty index score groups. To assess the prognostic influence of the preoperative modified 5-item frailty index, we conducted Cox proportional regression analyses concerning progression-free, overall, and cancer-specific survival.RESULTS:
Of 434 patients, 82, and 352 were classified into the high and low modified 5-item frailty index score groups, respectively. The high modified 5-item frailty index score group had significantly higher rates of severe surgical complications (P = .038) and ≥30 days of hospitalization (P = .049) and significantly worse progression-free (P = .012) and overall survival (P = .002) than the low modified 5-item frailty index score group. The multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that a high modified 5-item frailty index score was independently associated with poor progression-free (P = .044), overall (P = .017), and cancer-specific survival (P = .005).CONCLUSION:
The modified 5-item frailty index emerged as a significant predictive indicator of severe surgical complications and postoperative survival outcomes in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma treated with radical nephroureterectomy.Palabras clave
