ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Surgical site infection (SSI) is a substantial cause of peri-operative morbidity among patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC). The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors of SSI after RC and to classify and characterize treatment of SSIs.Methods:
We retrospectively analyzed peri-operative characteristics and SSI, for patients undergoing RC from 2007 to 2022. Patients were stratified by SSI versus no SSI and differences were assessed. Uni-variable/multi-variable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with SSI. SSIs were categorized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) type Superficial incisional, deep incisional, and organ/space confined.Results:
Three hundred and ninety-eight patients had RC, 279 open, and 119 robotic; 78 (19.6%) developed SSI. Cohorts were similar demographically. Length of stay (LOS) was longer in the SSI cohort (8.8 d versus 12.4 d, p < 0.001), and body mass index (BMI) was greater in patients with SSI (24.34 vs. 25.39, p = 0.0003). On uni-variable analysis, age, gender, Charlson Comorbidity Index, diabetes mellitus, diversion, odds ratio (OR) time, blood loss, and open versus robotic technique were not substantial SSI predictors. BMI was an independent risk factor for SSI on both uni-variable (OR 1.07, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.018-1.115, p = 0.0061) and multi-variable analysis (OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.009-1.109, p = 0.02) for 10 (12.8%) and 24 (30.8%) superficial and deep-incisional SSIs, respectively. Superficial wound SSI was treated conservatively with 60% receiving antibiotic agents and no procedural intervention. Deep SSIs received antibiotic agents and 50% required surgical intervention. There were 44 (56.4%) organ/space SSIs, and the most common treatment was antibiotic agents (100%) and IR drain placement (30, 68.2%).Conclusion:
In patients undergoing RC, BMI was an independent risk factor for SSI. Type of the surgical procedure, robotic versus open, was not predictive of SSI. LOS was longer for patients with SSI. SSI was managed differently depending on CDC classification.
