ABSTRACT

To investigate oncologic and urinary outcomes after anterior exenteration for urothelial cell carcinoma in females, identifying tumor characteristics associated with female pelvic organ involvement. We hypothesized that a lack of trigonal or bladder floor tumor, intraoperative palpable posterior mass, and clinical lymphadenopathy is associated with a lack of female pelvic organ involvement.
