  • Title: [Current immunologic findings in bladder cancer].
    Author: Seyfarth M, Hudemann B, Erdmann T.
    Journal: Z Urol Nephrol; 1982 Mar; 75(3):153-7. PubMed ID: 7102126.
    Abstract:
    As a result of the growing significance of immunological findings in malignant growths, more attention is being paid to these questions in the diagnosis and treatment of carcinomas of the urinary bladder in humans. In this particular field the findings are not very numerous. In the field of immunodiagnosis demonstrable immunoreactions caused by cells seem to possess greater significance. Skin tests have only had prognostic significance to date. In the field of immunotherapy a non-specific BCG treatment was carried out on a small number of patients with various forms of application. These results do not give any certain information. The author refers to studies on chemically induced carcinomas of the urinary bladder in animals.
