While most patients are managed with systemic treatment, some present with an isolated site of recurrence questioning the role of salvage surgical resection. The objective of the study was to examine the characteristics and outcomes of patients undergoing salvage metastasectomy for treatment of recurrent UCB following RC to assess its viability as a treatment option. METHODS: Using our IRB-approved cystectomy database, we conducted a retrospective review for patients who had a recurrence of UCB following RC with curative intent between January 1971 and December 2021. Patients (pts) for whom salvage surgery was the first treatment after recurrence were included. Diagnosis of recurrence was confirmed through imaging and/or pathology. Pts with recurrence in multiple sites, upper tract, or urethra were excluded. Pts were categorized based on location of metastasis, and characteristics and outcomes reported. RESULTS: We identified 3458 pts who underwent RC with intent to cure for UCB of whom 1012 (29.3%) had recurrence post RC. 34 pts (25 males, 9 females) with a median age of 69 years met the inclusion criteria. The most common site of recurrence was lung (9), lymph node (LN)(8), and brain(7). The median time to recurrence was 11.2 months. All pts underwent salvage surgery, with 24 receiving additional treatment: 6 radiation (3 brain, 1 bone, 1 lung, 1 LN), 11 chemotherapy (5 lung, 5 LN, 1 pelvis), 4 radiation and chemotherapy (2 brain, 1 bone, 1 pelvis), 2 immunotherapy and chemotherapy (2 LN), and 1 with a combination of all three (bone). Following salvage surgery, overall median survival was 25.1 months and median survival for each site varied: LN 50.2 months, lungs 30.2 months, bone 30.3 months, brain 16.5 months, and pelvis 9.4 months. Additionally, one patient had metastasis to the liver and one to the adrenal gland who were disease free for 8.3 and 3.7 months, respectively, after salvage surgery. CONCLUSIONS: This exploratory analysis invites further investigation of the role of surgery alone or in combination with systemic therapy in the face of limited metastatic disease.
