Identifying patients at risk for depression after radical cystectomy

CONCLUSIONS: Depression among patients facing cystectomy is high and postoperative progression is substantial. Patients without depressive symptoms preoperatively are at increased risk of developing postoperative depression. After 12-18 months, the most influential risk factor for depression is recurrence. These findings highlight the need to consider interventions in selected patients.PMID:38466863 | DOI:10.5489/cuaj.8611
