Abstract

Comment on 'Impact of perioperative nutrition on recovery after radical cystectomy: a randomised trial'We read with great interest the randomised controlled trial by Amer et al. [1], which demonstrated that perioperative nutritional optimisation accelerated gastrointestinal recovery, reduced length of stay, and improved bioimpedance-derived cellular health following radical cystectomy.This work is timely, given the increasing emphasis on metabolic resilience and enhanced recovery pathways in cystectomy care, and we commend the authors for undertaking a well-designed prospective study in a complex surgical population.Nevertheless, several methodological aspects merit further clarification to strengthen the interpretability and translational potential of the findings.
