title: [Bladder neoplasms].
abstract: The authors underline the diagnostic accuracy of transurethral bladder ultrasonography in the estimation of local infiltration of bladder tumors. The study was conducted on 21 patients who underwent either endoscopic resection or cystectomy. The clinical staging obtained by transurethral echography was compared with the pathological one. The results obtained by either method were comparable in all cases.
