Ta and T1 Bladder Cancer: Location, Recurrence and Progression†

Abstract: An analysis of 58 patients who presented with their first superficial bladder tumour(s) stage Ta or T1 and who were followed prospectively is presented. Tumour characteristics which correlated well with the likelihood of new tumour occurrence were invasion of lamina propria, multiplicity, size equal to or greater than 3 cm and abnormal selected mucosal biopsies. Positive urinary cytology and higher grade tumours correlated, though less strongly. Development of higher grade or stage in subsequent tumours (i.e. … Show more

“…21 A few small studies have demonstrated that positive urine cytology in patients with superficial (Ta or T1) tumors is associated with disease recurrence, suggesting that urine cytology perhaps does have a role to play in prognostication. 11,13,14 However, none demonstrated an association of urine cytology with disease progression. Further, those studies included patients who had high-grade tumors, a known independent risk factor for recurrence and progression.…”

“…Approximately 90% of bladder tumors arise from the urothelial lining, and urothelial carcinoma or transitional cell carcinoma, is the most common histologic type in the United States. Between 50% and 70% of patients with superficial tumors will develop new superficial transitional cell carcinoma, often within 12 months of diagnosis, and 10% to 20% progress to infiltrate muscularis propria (2). Because these tumors have a very high incidence of recurrence, the psychological and economic burdens to the health care system of repeated diagnostic evaluations and therapy are substantial.…”

“…Although state-of-the-art TUR by itself can eradicate Ta, T1 tumours completely, these tumours commonly recur and can progress to muscle invasive (MIBC) (Witjes, 2009). 85% of patients will relapse, mainly during the first postoperative year (Heney et al, 1982;Dalesio et al, 1983;Torti et al, 1987;Gkritsios et al, 2013). Many recurrences are probably new tumors derived from urothelial dysplastic areas, but a significant proportion can be derived from tumour cells released during resection and eventually implanted in the injured areas (McDonald et al, 1956;Weldon et al, 1975;Page et al, 1978;Soloway et al, 1980;Hyacinthe et al, 1995;Selman et al, 2011).…”
