abstract = {Small-cell bladder cancer (SCBC) is an aggressive and rare
malignancy for which there is no clear optimal treatment
strategy. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to
compare the median overall survival (OS) of patients with
limited-stage (LS) SCBC treated with either cystectomy-based
multimodal therapy (CBMMT) or radiation-based multimodal
therapy (RBMMT).A comprehensive search of PUBMED, Embase,
and Scopus databases was performed for studies published
before January 2024 according to the PRISMA guidelines.
Studies have assessed LS-SCBC disease and provided survival
data for subgroups of patients undergoing radical surgery or
bladder-preserving approaches to be deemed eligible. Data
extraction and quality assessment were independently
conducted by 2 authors.Five studies comprising 1041 patients
were analyzed. The pooled median OS for patients receiving
RBMMT was 34.6 months $(95\%$ CI, 25.5-43.7), compared to
29.7 months $(95\%$ CI, 18.2-41.1) for those undergoing
CBMMT. The main limitations are the retrospective nature of
the included studies and the potential bias.This
meta-analysis indicates that RBMMT may provide comparable
outcomes to CBMMT in LS-SCBC patients, supporting the
consideration of bladder-preserving approaches in selected
cases. RBMMT may offer a potential clinical benefit in terms
of organ preservation for appropriately selected patients,
although survival differences were not statistically
significant.},
