- * A study analyzed 895 patients who underwent nephroureterectomy for UTUC, categorizing them into two groups: those eligible for adjuvant immunotherapy and those not eligible, and evaluated their oncological outcomes through statistical models.
- * Findings indicated that the group eligible for adjuvant immunotherapy had poorer recurrence-free, cancer-specific, and overall survival rates, with pathological grades and lymphovascular invasion serving as significant risk factors for survival outcomes.
En bloc resection of bladder tumors (ERBT) has been used as a treatment option to improve pathologic diagnostic accuracy in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. We report on the feasibility of a novel ERBT technique using an electrosurgical snare with flexible cystoscope: flexible cystoscopic En bloc Snare Resection of Bladder Tumor (f-ESRBT). We used the electrosurgical snare to resect a superficial bladder tumor after injection of 50% glucose in the submucosa at the tumor base.
