Prediction of recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: The role of androgen receptor and miRNA-2909.

Aim: The exact role of androgen receptor (AR) and miR-2909 in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) remains controversial. Our aim is to assess the relationship between NMIBC recurrences with AR expression and miRNA-2909.

Patients And Methods: This prospective controlled cohort study included 99 male patients with NMIBC (Ta-T1) who were treated by transurethral resection and 50 male patients as healthy control.
