Role of Re-Resection in Non–Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
نویسنده
چکیده
Restaging, or second transurethral resection (TUR), is essential to successful management of high-risk, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Here we review the relevant literature documenting the role of restaging TUR. Cohort and randomized studies show that restaging TUR detects more tumors than initial TUR, improves clinical staging, and reduces the frequency of early tumor recurrences. Our conclusions show thatrestaging TUR improves the outcomes of high-risk,non-muscle-invasive bladder neoplasms.

BACKGROUND transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is the first-line treatment fornon-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We aimed to investigate the effect of probable risk factors on the positive rate of the repeated transurethral resection of bladder tumor performed 4-6 weeks after an initial TURBT in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer in China. METHODS 134 patients with...

AIM To evaluate the impact of early re-resection on the incidence of tumour recurrence and progression in patients with pT1 high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HG-NMIBC). PATIENTS AND METHODS From 2001 to 2008, 486 consecutive patients were diagnosed with pT1 HG-NMIBC. Data were collected retrospectively which included patient demographics, histological parameters including the pre...

The aim of the present meta-analysis was to compare the benefits of Bacillus Calmetter-Guerin (BCG) and mitomycin C in the treatment of patients with superficial bladder cancer. The present meta-analysis analyzed the benefits of BCG and mitomycin C in the treatment of patients with superficial bladder cancer by comparing progression-free survival (PFS) rates in patients treated with either of t...

While radical cystectomy (RC) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) represents the accepted gold standard for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer, this treatment approach is associated with significant morbidity. As such, bladder preservation strategies are often utilized in patients who are either deemed medically unfit due to significant comorbidities or whom decline management...
