| Summary: | The goal of the research: to evaluate short-and long-term treatment outcomes in patients with superficial bladder cancer, who underwent transurethral en block resection of the bladder wall tumor. Material and methods. Surgical treatment results were assessed in 270 patients with bladder cancer from 2003 to 2012. All patients were divided into 2 groups. Group I consisted of 94 patients who underwent transurethral en block resection of the bladder wall tumor. Group II (the control group) composed of 176 patients who received the conventional transurethral resection. Results. Local recurrence occurred 1.4-fold less frequently in Group I than in Group II patients (47.7 versus 34.0 %, p<0.05), and disease progression occurred 4-fold less frequently in Group I than in the control group (8.5 versus 2.1 %, p<0.001). Moreover, the Group I patients had a longer time to disease progression than the Group II patients (6.1 ± 3.1 versus 32.5 ± 75 months, p<0.05). Conclusion. Transurethral en block resection of the bladder wall tumor allows the depth of invasion to be exactly measured and the incidence of recurrence to be decreased. |
