  • Title: [The results of the surgical treatment of bladder cancer patients].
    Author: Matveev BP, Figurin KM.
    Journal: Urol Nefrol (Mosk); 1997; (2):25-8. PubMed ID: 9206878.
    Abstract:
    101 patients with cancer of the bladder were operated in the Moscow Cancer Research Center from 1990 to 1995. Cystectomy with varying urinary bypass was made in 49 patients. 52 patients were subjected to bladder resection. The former developed recurrences in 28.9%, the latter in 62% of the patients. Recurrences after the resections were primarily local. 5-year survival of transient-cell bladder carcinoma patients after cystectomy made up 68.2%, after the resection 80.7%. The authors hold that both operations are applicable, but they have specific indications.
