Inclusion criteria were those patients who had a cystectomy and required urinary diversion by either IC or neobladder.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> In total, 32 publications met the inclusion criteria. Data were available on 46 787 patients (n=36 719 for IC and n=10 068 for ONB). Meta-analyses showed that IC urinary diversions performed less favorably than ONB in terms of re-operation rates, Clavien- Dindo complications, and mortality rates; odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were 1.76 (1.24, 2.50), p<0.01; 1.16 (1.09, 1.22), p<0.01; and 6.29 (5.30, 7.48), p<0.01, respectively. IC urinary diversion performed better than ONB in relation to urinary tract infection rates and ureteric stricture rates, OR and 95% CI 0.67 (0.58, 0.77), p<0.01; and 0.70 (0.55, 0.89), p<0.01, respectively.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Our results show that there is no significantly increased morbidity with ONB compared to IC. Selection of either urinary diversion technique should be based on factors such as tumor stage, comorbidities, surgical experience, and patient acceptance of postoperative sequalae.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Canadian Urological Association Journal}, author={Browne, Eva and Lawrentschuk, Nathan and Jack, Greg S. and Davis, Niall F.}, year={2020}, month={Jul.}, pages={E48–57} }
