“…In some cases, neoplasia cannot be diagnosed. This confirms the conclusions of Winterberger et al, (4,9) for whom arteriographical diagnosis after radiotherapy is much more difficult and does not clearly differentiate recurrence from radiological lesions. Angiographical examinations are thus useful for stage IV evalu ations which will determine the therapy and are in this respect much more efficient than bimanual palpation under anaesthesia combined with bladder biopsy.…”

“…The staging can be easily determined at angiog raphy for the evaluation of the extravesical spreading, but if Winterberger et al (4,9) obtain 85.6% accurate diagnoses with arteriography alone, Lang et al (11) reaches a 100% accuracy for stage IV.…”

“…For Winterberger et al (4,9) lymphography together with arteriography reduces the percentage of error by stating a more accurate diagnosis in 95.5% of the cases. On the other hand, it is much more difficult to differentiate stage II from III and to diagnose a tumour at stages I or II at arteriog raphy (7).…”

“…Angiographically, mainly tumors of higher stages can be reliably diagnosed. According to Winterberger et al [14], an accuracy of 85% results for categories T3 and T4. Taking into account the invasiveness of angiographic diagnosis, the high error rate in T1 and T2 tumors as well as the risk of complications, this method of investigation is by no means to be regarded as a real alternative.…”

Previously, histologic precision in the diagnosis of urologic cancers had, for some time, remained stable. More recently, variations in classifications of testis tumors, prostate cancer, and to some degree, bladder tumors, have been introduced. Most systems have in concurrence a desire or an attempt to infer better prognostic assessment in the overall results to treatment. With the advent of additional biological markers or direct enzymatic measurements, e.g., in prostate cancer, further improvements in identifying at risk populations, responses to treatment, and possible indications for variations in treatment, have ensued. These developments alone unquestionably mark the greatest area of change in the recent decade. The extent of disease assessment prior to definitive therapy, whether by arteriography, ultrasound, CAT scanning, or an occasional lymphangiography, has also influenced or modified treatment decisions. For continuing care and follow-up, several of these noninvasive techniques are now becoming included in the more standard approaches. Noninvasive techniques have been introduced for the therapy of renal tumors such as inducing infarction of the primary tumor. Endoscopic ultrasonic techniques have been particularly useful in assessing the size of pelvic tumors and response to treatment, even in detection of unexpected multiple primaries or metastatic extensions. Overall, the precision in urologic cancer, both for diagnostic and detection purposes, has been increased with these introductions.
