INTRODUCTION: Local recurrence (LR) after radical cystectomy (RC) for @entity150 has a bad prognosis. Treatment options include chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgical excision, but few data is available on the advantages of surgery for these @entity1 . @entity1 AND METHODS: We evaluated our series of 8 selected @entity1 who underwent surgery for locally recurrent @entity150 after RC. RESULTS: The median time to recurrence after cystectomy was 20.8 months. The complications rate and severity were not negligible. Pathology report confirmed @entity189 with negative margins in all @entity1 . After LR treatment, 4 @entity1 recurred locally for a second time and 3 developed distant @entity3 . They all died after a median follow-up of 10.4 months. One @entity1 remained disease free after 14 months. CONCLUSIONS: The prognosis of @entity1 with LR is poor regardless of surgical treatment and reflects the aggressive biological nature of @entity5 .
