Abstrakt: T1 G3 bladder carcinoma are classified as superficial tumours and treatment results are included in low stage tumour groups. A review of survival rates shows that there is a high risk of progression about 50-70%. The grade is by now considered the most significant prognostic factor and many other prognostic biological tests have been suggested. We treated 41 cases of T1G3 bladder tumours with a first therapeutic TUR and second staging TUR two months later. Subsequently a group of 15 has had "wait" and see" endoscopic follow-up with bad results, a group of 7 underwent "early cystectomy", a group of 12 has been treated with adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy with poor results on recurrence and good results on progression percentages, a group of 6 radiotherapy with poor results. We got confirmation of high risk of progression, 4 cases with high stage from beginning, 3 with precocious metastatic disease. Apart the cases with precocious metastases, the best survival rates are achieved with early cystectomy.
