Cystoscopy, computed tomography, and a biopsy have culminated in a diagnosis of invasive bladder cancer for a 61-year-old female patient. Consequently, the woman is preparing to undergo a radical cystectomy.
The nurse on the urological-gynecological unit of the hospital is aware that this procedure will involve the removal of:
A) The patient's urethra and bladder
B) The patient's fallopian tubes and uterus
C) The majority of the patient's genitourinary system
D) The patient's kidneys, ureters, and bladder

A) Increasing intracranial pressure (ICP)
B) An epidural hematoma
C) Leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
D) Meningitis
