Radical cystectomy (RC) is the standard treatment for nonmetastatic muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder. It is associated with relevant morbidity and mortality. After RC, the 5-year overall survival rate is approximately 60%. In the context of the present work, quality parameters of RC divided into oncological/functional criteria and freedom from complications are identified and summarized. A PubMed search was performed. In addition to early criteria such as negative surgical margins, performance of pelvic lymphadenectomy, creation of a continent urinary diversion or preservation of sexual function, long-term criteria were identified such as the absence of higher-grade postoperative complications, recurrence-free survival and the preservation of health-related quality of life. The early criteria are suitable for individualized therapy planning, whereas the long-term criteria can be used for quality monitoring.
