| description | The bladder constitutes the most frequent localization of malignant tumours in the urinary
tract and it is one of the common urological malignancies occurring worldwide in both
sexes. Local literature on bladder cancer are rather scare and hence the need for a study
of this nature.
Sixty-seven patients with cancer of the bladder treated in a period of ten years from 1996
to 2005 at Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia were studied to determine the pattern of the
disease and highlight the clinical presentation, cystoscopic finding, histopathology and
modalities offered for treatment of the disease.
It was found that the mean age of occurrence was 64.5 years. Male to female ratio was
5.7: 1 and predominantly affecting the Malays (86.57%). Sixty-one percent smoker with
significant statistical correlation to tumour grade. The most common clinical
presentations were haematuria (85.1 %). Transitional cell carcinoma was found in 95.5%
of studied population and most patients present with invasive stage (64.2%). TUR was
done for 83.6% of them while 28.4% of patients underwent systemic chemotherapy
therapy and 4.5% underwent radiotherapy. |
