    TITLE: EVALUATION OF FUNCTIONAL OUTCOMES AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN ELDERLY PATIENTS (>75 Y.O. UNDERGOING MINIMALLY INVASIVE RADICAL CYSTECTOMY WITH SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY VS. BRICKER INTRACORPOREAL ILEAL CONDUIT URINARY DIVERSION. THIS STUDY AIMS TO COMPARE COMPLICATIONS AND QOL IN PATIENTS AGED > 75 Y.O., WHO UNDERWENT MINIMALLY INVASIVE (MI) RADICAL CYSTECTOMY (RC) WITH BRICKER INTRACORPOREAL URINARY DERIVATION AND SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY. FROM MAY 2016 TO MARCH 2020, A RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF 78 MEDICAL RECORDS OF PATIENTS WHO UNDERWENT MINIINVASIVE RADICAL CYSTECTOMY WITH INTRACORPOREAL NON-CONTINENT HETEROTOPIC NEOBLADDER (ILEAL CONDUIT AS DESCRIBED BY BRICKER) OR SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY, WAS CONDUCTED. ACCORDING TO THE URINARY DIVERSION PERFORMED, PATIENTS WERE DIVIDED INTO TWO GROUPS: GROUP A, CONSISTING OF 37 PATIENTS (25 MALES AND 12 FEMALES, MEAN AGE WAS 77.2 YEARS OLD), WHO UNDERWENT A BRICKER ILEAL CONDUIT; GROUP B CONSISTED OF 41 PATIENTS (28 MALES AND 13 FEMALES, MEAN AGE WAS 77.2 WAS 82.4 YEARS OLD), WHO UNDERWENT SINGLE-STOMAL URETEROSTOMY (AS DOUBLE-BARRELED URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY). A 45 MM ENDO GIA AUTOMATIC STAPLER WAS USED TO DISSECT THE BOWEL PROXIMALLY AND DISTALLY AND A 3-0 VICRYL RAPID SUTURE WAS USED FOR THE STENTS THAT WERE FIXED TO THE UTERUS FOR THE BRICKER ILEAL CONDUIT DIVERSION. A VICRYL RAPID 3-0 SUTURE WERE USED TO FIX THE UTERUS TO THE ABDOMINAL FASCIA DURING SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY. MEAN FOLLOW-UP WAS 14.4 MONTHS (RANGE 8¿16 MONTHS). THE FOLLOWING COMPLICATIONS WERE REPORTED AS FOLLOWS: GROUP A: BRICKER ILEAL CONDUIT DIVERSION. (N=?) CLAVIEN-DINDO GRADE I¿II. (N=?) CLAVIEN-DINDO GRADE III-IV. GROUP B: SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY. (N=?) UROPERITONEUM. (N=?) PARALYTIC ILEUS. (N=?) CLAVIEN-DINDO GRADE III-IV. IN CONCLUSION, IN ELDERLY PATIENTS THIS STUDY SHOWS THAT, FOR BLADDER CANCER, THE CHOICE OF MINIMALLY INVASIVE RADICAL CYSTECTOMY WITH SINGLE STOMA URETEROCUTANEOSTOMY COULD REPRESENT A VALID ALTERNATIVE TO HETEROTOPIC URINARY DIVERSION WITH BRICKER ILEAL CONDUIT, WHICH IS THE MORE COMMON ALTERNATIVE.
