title: [Tumor-associated mononuclear cell infiltrate and recurrence rate in the superficial urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder].
abstract: Investigation on the absence or presence of malignancy-associated mononuclear cell infiltration in correlation to the recurrence rate after topic adriamycin chemotherapy was made in 53 patients with a superficial urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder after transurethral resection. The tumor recurrence rate, after an average observation period of 2.8 years, was 55%. Malignancy-associated mononuclear cell infiltration was found in 18 cases (34%) and of these, 6 (33%) showed recurrence. Absence of cell infiltration was found in 35 cases (66%) and of these, 23 (66%) showed recurrence. In those tumors which showed recurrence, cell infiltration was absent in 83%, whereas it was absent in only 46% of the tumors without recurrence.
