Objectives To determine if a re-transurethral resection (TUR), in the presence or absence of muscle at the first TUR in patients with T1-high grade (HG)/Grade 3 (G3) bladder cancer, makes a difference in recurrence, progression, cancer specific (CSS) and overall survival (OS). Patients and methods In a large retrospective multicentre cohort of 2451 patients with T1-HG/G3 initially treated with bacille Calmette–Gu erin, 935 (38%) had a re-TUR. According to the presence or absence of muscle in the specimen of the primary TUR, patients were divided in four groups: group 1 (no muscle, no re-TUR), group 2 (no muscle, re-TUR), group 3 (muscle, no re-TUR) and group 4 (muscle, re-TUR). Clinical out…

Scopo del lavoro Re-TUR is strongly advocated for T1G3, because of the high incidence residual disease and mainly the risk of substaging. Its real clinical value remains to be determined and the clinical factors that may influence the decision. Some authors suggest that when muscle is present in the specimen, re-TUR may be avoided. To evaluate if the presence of muscle or not at the first TUR in T1G3 bladder cancer makes a difference in recurrence, progression and cancer specific survival after re-TUR. Materiali e metodi In a large retrospective cohort of 2530 primary T1G3 initially treated with BCG, 953 (37.7%) had a re-TUR. According to the presence or not of muscle in the specimen of pri…
