All data were prospectively collected based on the standard format of our protocol. Patients’ medical history and demographic information, including age, sex, height, weight, ASA physical status classification, underlying disease, and history of any intraperitoneal surgery within the last 5 years, were collected. The following intraoperative and postoperative data were also recorded: type of urinary diversion, operation duration, anesthesia duration, intraoperative and postoperative fluid intake, amount of transfusion, estimated blood loss, intraoperative use of inotropes/vasopressors, and durations of hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) stays. We recorded eGFR, serum creatinine, and C-reactive protein (CRP) on postoperative day (POD) 1, and any changes in these parameters during the hospital stay were also recorded.The primary outcome was the incidence of a composite of in-hospital postoperative complications. Postoperative complications included seven categories according to the organ system: gastrointestinal, infectious, wound-related (wound dehiscence), cardiac, thromboembolic, genitourinary, and neurologic complications. These complications were assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy [
