title: Association between HLA antigens and bladder tumors.
abstract: HLA antigen type was studied in 55 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The results showed high HLA-B5 and low HLA-BW35 frequencies. Histological grade, stage, and recurrence rate of tumors were also evaluated separately. The results were more significant in recurrent tumors.
