title: [Our experience in treating patients with surface cancer of the bladder].
abstract: 210 patients with surface cancer of the bladder were divided into three groups. 67 patients of group 1 underwent transurethral resection of the bladder (TRB) followed by preventive intravesical chemotherapy. 91 patients of group 2 received preventive intravesical BCG after TRB. 61 control patients (group 3) had TRB only. Recurrences emerged in 15 (16.5%), 12 (62.7%) and 45 (73.8%) group 2, 1 and 3 patients, respectively. The preventive chemotherapy was effective only in patients with primary tumor (the recurrence rate 42.3%), the relapses being less responsive to it (the recurrence rate 75.6%).
