Contemporary surgical and technical aspects of transurethral resection of bladder tumor

Abstract: To date, transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) remains the gold standard of staging urothelial cancer of the bladder and treating non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The primary goal of the procedure includes a proper diagnosis, correct staging, and removal all lesions. Herein, we discuss major contemporary surgical and technical aspects of including en bloc resection, bipolar and laser resection as well as quality control of TURBT.

“…Up to 44% of cases of HV are not recognized by community pathologists, further leading to mismanaging the patients [ 15 ]. Indeed, the tissue to analyze may be very small and many artefacts may be present due to repeated coagulation during an often piecemeal resection [ 22 ]. For this reason, over the last years the interest in en bloc resection of bladder tumour (ERBT) is constantly increasing [ 23 ].…”

“…TURBT is the first step of a trimodal therapy. TURBT can be performed either by monopolar or bipolar, en bloc or standard resection [20]. A wider margin of tumor-free urothelium around the lesion is required.…”
