ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the perioperative morbidity of PC-RPLND in two intermediate volume centers and to identify predictors of high morbidity.METHODS:
Retrospective analysis of 124 patients treated with open PC-RPLND at two tertiary referral centers between 2001 and 2018. Perioperative morbidity was determined by analyzing additional surgical procedures, intra-operative blood loss, and postoperative complications.RESULTS:
An additional procedure was necessary for 33 patients (26.6%). The risk was higher in patients with IGCCCG intermediate/poor prognosis (OR 3.56; 95% CI 1.33-9.52) and residual tumor size > 5 cm (OR 3.53; 95% CI 1.39-8.93). Blood loss was higher in patients with IGCCCG intermediate/poor prognosis (ß = 0.177; p = 0.029), large residual tumor (ß = 0.570; p < 0.001), an additional intervention (ß = 0.342; p < 0.001) and teratoma on retroperitoneal histology (ß = - 0.19; p = 0.014). Thirty-one patients had a postoperative complication Clavien-Dindo Grade ≥ 2 (25.0%). Complication risk was highest in patients undergoing an additional intervention (OR 3.46; 95% CI 1.03-11.60; p = 0.044).CONCLUSIONS:
The rate of additional interventions in our series is comparable to what has been reported in high-volume centers. IGCCCG intermediate/poor prognosis patients with high-volume disease and patients undergoing an additional surgical procedure can be classified as high-risk patients.Palavras-chave
