The high risk of progression found in T1G3 bladder cancer influence the treatment and follow-up of this kind of patients. From January 1983 to December 1992, 803 patients with superficial bladder cancer (first presentation) had observed in the Urology Department at the Spedali Civili in Brescia. In this group, 96 patients were classified as T1G3 and our retrospective study is a critical analysis about their treatment: 13 patients underwent cystectomy as primary treatment and 83 had been cured with a transurethral resection. Of this last group, 26 patients are still without of disease (mean follow-up: 4.2 years), 30 had a recurrence which, in stage and grade, was identical or lower to the initial disease and 27 patients had a progression. Alltogether 36 patients underwent cystectomy: 15 are tumor-free and 21 died. The results of this retrospective study, led us to believe that T1G3 bladder cancer therapy is endoscopic at the beginning. Adjuvant topic chemotherapy treatments improve the recurrence rate tangibily; an early-operated cystectomy permits a good rate of recovery. |
