[Diagnosis and treatment of recurrent surface cancer of the urinary bladder (early repeated cystoscopy and biopsy)].
In spite of some achievements in the field of oncourology, the problem of diagnosis and treatment of surface cancer of the urinary bladder (SCUB) remains urgent because of early recurrence and progression after TUR (50 and 30%, respectively). Repeated cystoscopy and biopsy early after surgery enable the physician to establish a real stage of SCUB (invasion into the bladder wall--criterion T and cell differentiation--criterion G). Early accurate staging of the disease allows design further policy of treatment. Early repeated cystoscopy and biopsy detected recurrence of transient cell SCUB in 51 (24.75%) patients. In 20 (9.7%) patients recurrent tumor located at the site of the previous operation. In other places recurrences were detected in 31 (15.05%) patients. Recurrent tumor was found in 23 (11.16%) cases at stage Ta and 28 (13.6%) patients at stage T1; in 15, 30 and 6 patients with high, moderate and low malignancy grade (22.06, 24.79 and 35.29%, respectively). SCUB progression developed in a total of 15 (7.28%) patients: by T criterion (T1-T2a) in 9 (4.37%) patients and by criterion G (G2-G3) in 6 (2.91%) patients. Thus, early repeated cystoscopy and biopsy detect early residual and recurrent SCUB facilitating design of further treatment policy.
