Abstract
Objective

Radical cystectomy with urinary diversion is a procedure in which a reduction of morbidity, quick postoperative rehabilitation, limited length of stay and cost containment are difficult to achieve. Postoperative ileus has been identified as the most common cause of delayed recovery and prolonged length of stay. With our review, we try to establish the main causes.

Material and methods

A total of 154 patients underwent radical cystectomy from 1990 to 2008. We examined demographic and perioperative variables of the patients who did and did not develop ileus.

Results

No significant association was found between ileus and all the factors we studied.

Conclusions

Postoperative ileus stands out as one of the most frecuent complications that causes increased length of stay. More detailed studies are required to determine perioperative regimens to reduce this complication.

Resumen
Objetivo

La cistectomía radical con derivación urinaria es un procedimiento en el cual la reducción de la morbilidad, una rehabilitación postoperatoria rápida, una estancia hospitalaria reducida y una reducción de costes son difíciles de conseguir. El íleo postoperatorio ha sido identificado como la causa más frecuente de retraso en la recuperación y de una mayor estancia hospitalaria. Con nuestro trabajo, intentamos establecer cuáles podrían ser sus principales causas.

Material y métodos

Realizamos 154 cistectomías entre 1990–2008. Examinamos diferentes variables demográficas y perioperatorias de los pacientes con y sin íleo.

Resultados

No se encontró significación estadística al relacionar el íleo con ninguno de los factores estudiados.

Conclusiones

El íleo postoperatorio se presenta como una de las complicaciones más frecuentes que ocasionan una estancia hospitalaria prolongada. Se requieren otros estudios detallados que determinen regímenes perioperatorios destinados a reducir esta complicación.
