Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the clinical significance and safety of second transurethral resection for patients with stage T2 bladder carcinoma treated with bladder-preservation-therapy(BPT) protocal.

Methods

The clinical data of 71 patients with stage T2 muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma treated with BPT in People’s Hospital of Huaibei city between June 2013 and June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were evaluated by CT/MRI and confirmed as stage T2 bladder carcinoma by biospy after surgery. All of them were medically unfit or refused radical surgery. Among them, 33 patients underwent secondary transurethral resection of bladder cancer (TURBT) after initial resetion, the others didn't underwent secondary TURBT. After TURBT with or without secondary TURBT, patients received chemotherapy of gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC) and bladder perfusion according to oncologist’s consultion. The relationship of secondary TURBT and disease-free survival (DFS) was analyzed to illustrate the clinical value of secondary TURBT in BPT protocal of stage T2 bladder carcinoma.

Results

There was no significant difference in operation time, hospitalization days, blood loss or postoperative complications between two groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the mean DFS of secondary TURBT group was 60.6 months, while the other group was 47.2 months. The differences were statistically significant.Cox proportion-hazards regression modal analysis incidated that the secondary TURBT was an independent prognostic factor for stage T2 bladder carcinoma.

Conclusion

Secondary TURBT might alleviate the incidence of recurrence and progression of stage T2 bladder carcinoma patients underwent BPT protocal, compared to single TURBT, which can provide an effective and safe treatment option for patients.
