Purpose: To evaluate if hematologic parameters and inflammatory markers could predict extravesical tumor and overall survival after radical cystectomy for patients with recurrent high grade T-1 or muscle-invasive bladder cancer.Patients and Methods: A total of 68 consecutive cases of radical cystectomy performed with curative intent at our institution between April 2005 and October 2011 with preoperative hematologic parameters are included in this analysis. We evaluated preoperative characteristics with univariable and multivariate Cox proportional hazard ratios to assist in risk stratification for overall survival. Relative risk (RR) ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were created. We also identified factors associated with extravesical tumor extension with logistic regression analysis.Results: Median overall survival in the total cohort was 25 months (95% CI 13-61). In multivariate analysis, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio
