ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study evaluated the prognostic differences in invasive cancer that progressed from a superficial transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) compared to an already invasive TCC at the time of the initial presentation. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Seventy-one patients who had a radical cystectomy performed for an invasive TCC were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two groups. In the first group, the patients were diagnosed as a superficial TCC at initially, which progressed to an invasive tumor. The second group consisted of patients who were diagnosed with invasive TCC at the time of the initial diagnosis. Two groups were compared with regard to the TNM stage, Ash grade, presence of accompanying carcinoma in-situ and survival rate.RESULTS:
The group with invasive cancer at the time of the initial presentation had a significantly higher grade than the progressed group. The five-year survival rate was lower in the progressed group. Moreover, Kaplan-Meier analysis showed it was statistically significant (p=0.04).CONCLUSIONS:
The grade was higher and the five-year survival rate was lower in the group with invasive cancer at the time of the initial presentation. Therefore, the invasive TCC at the initial diagnosis might take a more aggressive nature than the progressed group.
