Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess the accuracy of a second FDG-PET/CT scan in evaluating patients with localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer after receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy before radical cystectomy.
- - A total of 62 patients were reviewed, and after exclusions, 45 patients were analyzed, with FDG-PET/CT showing a sensitivity of over 95% but lower specificity in identifying complete responders and residual disease compared to histopathology.
- - The findings indicate that FDG-PET/CT can effectively identify patients who may need alternative treatment avenues if they do not respond completely to chemotherapy.
Background: To evaluate the impact of salvage therapy (ST) on overall survival (OS) in recurrent primary urethral cancer (PUC).
Patients: A series of 139 patients (96 men, 43 women; median age = 66, interquartile range: 57-77) were diagnosed with PUC at 10 referral centers between 1993 and 2012. The modality of ST of recurrence (salvage surgery vs.
Introduction: The study aimed to investigate oncological outcomes of patients with concomitant bladder cancer (BC) and urethral carcinoma.
Methods: This is a multicenter series of 110 patients (74 men, 36 women) diagnosed with urethral carcinoma at 10 referral centers between 1993 and 2012. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to investigate the impact of BC on survival, and Cox regression multivariable analysis was performed to identify predictors of recurrence.
Purpose: To evaluate risk factors for survival in a large international cohort of patients with primary urethral cancer (PUC).
Methods: A series of 154 patients (109 men, 45 women) were diagnosed with PUC in ten referral centers between 1993 and 2012. Kaplan-Meier analysis with log-rank test was used to investigate various potential prognostic factors for recurrence-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS).
