RESUMO
Radical cystectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy and urinary diversion is the standard treatment for patients diagnosed with localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a multimodal perioperative care pathway comprising recommendations on different items with variable evidence that are aimed at improving outcomes. This review provides an overview of the application of specific elements of the ERAS guidelines. Forty-eight series were identified through our literature search. The studies reported a median of 16 out of the 22 ERAS steps (72.7%). The elements were applied in 79.3% of cases (interquartile range 61.1-85%) if mentioned in the studies, decreasing to 73.5% in the postoperative period. PATIENT SUMMARY: Guidelines on enhanced recovery after surgery recommend steps to follow and cover all areas of the patient's journey through the surgical process. We looked at the application of the elements for patients with bladder cancer. We found inconsistent reporting and use.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the differential impact of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) on recurrence patterns in patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) using [68Ga]Ga-PSMAHBED-CC conjugate 11 positron emission tomography (PSMA 11-PET). METHODS: We assessed 162 consecutive patients who experienced biochemical recurrence (BCR) after RP for nonmetastatic prostate cancer (PC). All had at least one positive lesion on imaging. No patient was on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Patients were categorized into those who had received adjuvant/salvage RT ± ADT and those who did not (RP only). Lesion- and patient-based analyses were performed. The impact of the radiation field was assessed. RESULTS: Overall, 57 BCR patients underwent RP only, 105 received postoperative RT. Median PSA was 1.01 ng/ml (IQR 0.58-2). In the lesion-based analysis, compared to the RP only patients, those who had received postoperative RT, had less lymph node (LN) recurrences distal to the common iliac bifurcation (35.2 vs. 57.9%, p = 0.05), but were more likely to harbor positive LNs proximal to the iliac bifurcation and in the presacral (34.2 vs. 12.3%, p = 0.002) areas as well as bone metastases (25.7 vs. 8.8%, p = 0.01). In the patient-based analysis, the patients with postoperative RT after RP had less recurrence in the pelvis only (pelvic LNs and/or prostate bed) (52.4 vs. 79%, p = 0.002), but were more likely to harbor extrapelvic recurrence (41.9 vs. 15.8%, p = 0.001). Patients who received RT to the prostate bed only had more recurrence to the pelvic LN only (54.2% vs. 23.4%, p = 0.002), but less extrapelvic recurrence (31.3 vs. 53.2%, p = 0.03) and less bone recurrence (16.7 vs. 36.2%, p = 0.031) compared to those patients, who received RT to the prostate bed and pelvic nodes. CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative radiation treatment alters the recurrence pattern in BCR patients after RP. Further prospective studies are needed to establish a decision tree for optimal imaging/management according to previous treatments.

PURPOSE: To assess the prevalence of sarcopenia and whether body composition parameters are associated with disease progression and overall survival (OS) in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This single-centre retrospective study evaluated data of 186 consecutive patients who underwent chemohormonal therapy between 2005 and 2016 as first-line systemic treatment for CRPC. Skeletal muscle and fat indices were determined using computerized tomography data before initiation of chemotherapy. Sarcopenia was defined as SMI of <55 cm2/m2. Visceral-to-subcutaneous fat ratio and skeletal muscle volume were calculated with body composition specific areas. Harrell's concordance index was used for predictive accuracy. RESULTS: A total of 154 (82.8%) patients met the criteria for sarcopenia; 139 (74.7%) individuals completed at least six cycles of docetaxel. Within a median follow-up of 24.1 months, age (HR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.06, p = 0.02), high PSA (1.55, 95% CI 1.07-2.25, p = 0.02) and low skeletal muscle volume (HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.10-2.35, p = 0.02) were the only independent prognostic factor for tumor progression. Overall, 93 (50%) patients died during the follow-up period. The established prognosticator, the prechemotherapy presence of liver metastases (HR 1.32, 95% CI 1.08-1.61, p < 0.01) was associated with shorter OS. Moreover, we noted that patients with an elevated visceral-to-subcutaneous fat ratio tended to have a shorter OS (p = 0.06). CONCLUSION: The large majority of men with CRPC suffers from sarcopenia. In our cohort, low skeletal muscle volume was an independent adverse prognosticator for progression of disease. We could not detect a statistically significant body composition parameter for OS, although patients with a high proportion of visceral fat had a trend for shorter OS. However, we suggest that body composition parameters determined by CT data can provide useful objective prognostic factors that may support tailored treatment decision-making.
