Purpose
Lymph node dissection at the time of radical nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision(NUBCE) for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is controversial. Some previous studies revealed that lymph node dissection had staging and survival benefit for muscle invasive renal pelvis UTUC. However, most of the studies were retrospective. Besides, there is no precise parameter for preoperative staging. We analyzed lymph node dissection of UTUC in China Medical University Hospital.
Materials and Methods
We retrospectively reviewed patients with UTUC who received NUBCE between May 2013 and May 2018. Patients with pathological stage T2-T4 renal pelvis UC without lymphadenopathy in preoperative image were included in analysis.
Results
97 patients were included. Lymph node dissection were performed in 64 patients but not in 33 patients. The median lymph node dissection number was 6 (IQR 2-14). 13 patients had lymph node metastasis. Most of the lymph node metastasis location was hilar (8 patients) and para-aorta /para-cava (7 patients). Comparing the overall survival, cancer specific survival, progression free survival. There was no significant difference between the two groups. Furthermore, among lymphovascular invasion patients, lymph node dissection group still had similar survival with control group.
Conclusions
Lymph node dissection at the time of NUBCE had the benefit of staging. Adjuvant treatment could be performed in lymph node metastasis patients. However, the therapeutic role of lymph node dissection is still unclear.
