Patterns of Failure and Prognostic Factors for Locoregional Recurrence after Radical Surgery in Upper Urinary Tract Transitional Cell Carcinoma: Implications for Adjuvant Radiotherapy

Abstract: Aims: We investigated the patterns of failure and prognostic factors for locoregional control (LRC) in patients with upper urinary tract (UUT) transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) treated with radical surgery to evaluate the role of adjuvant radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 76 patients with TCC of the renal pelvis and ureter without distant metastasis who underwent curative-intent surgery. No locoregional or distant failure occurred in 19 patients with pTa-1 … Show more
