There was no statistical difference in mortality (95% CI -0.012, 0.014; p=0.844) or inpatient hospitalizations 95% CI [-0.046, 0.009; p=0.191) within 3 months. There was a statistically significant increase in suicide attempts in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group within 3 months from cystectomy (95% CI 0.002, 0.007; p=0.002]. CONCLUSIONS: Bladder cancer development with or without treatment can induce significant patient morbidity with ensuing depression. Our retrospective cohort study demonstrates neoadjuvant chemotherapy correlates to increased incidence of depression as well as suicidal attempts. Meticulous attention needs to be directed towards mental health counseling and treatment for oncologic patients.
