ABSTRACT
We aimed to investigate the risk of bladder cancer (BCa) survivors developing or dying from 15 specific-subsequent primary cancers (SPCs). A total of 229,554 BCa survivors were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. Incidence and mortality per 10,000 person-years, absolute excess risk (AER) per 10,000 person-years, standardized incidence ratios, and standardized mortality ratios were calculated. Among BCa survivors, 38,207 developed SPCs and 17,546 died of SPCs. The risk of developing and dying from SPCs was significantly high for 10 and 6 of the 12 common SPCs in men, respectively, while for 6 and 5 of the 14 common SPCs in women, respectively. The SPCs with high risk of development in men were colorectal, breast, liver, and pancreatic cancer, and the ones with high risk of death were liver and pancreatic cancer. Moreover, SPCs with a high risk of development or death among young BCa survivors include ureter, kidney and renal pelvis, and lung cancer. In addition, BCa survivors within 1 year of diagnosis have a significantly higher risk of development and death from ureter, kidney and renal pelvis, prostate, and cervix cancer, but a lower risk of prostate cancer than the general population after 5 years of diagnosis. Lung cancer had a significantly high risk of development but a low risk of death. Among BCa survivors, the risk of developing or dying from few SPCs is significantly high. These findings may provide an important basis for clinical follow-up of BCa survivors.
