Bladder Preservation With Transurethral Tumor Resection and Intravesical BCG Instillation in Superficial Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer: A 10-Year Follow-up
Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the 10-year oncological outcomes of bladder preservation with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) instillation in selected patients with superficial muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).

description | Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the 10-year oncological outcomes of bladder preservation with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) instillation in selected patients with superficial muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Materials and Methods Patients diagnosed with superficial MIBC (stage T2a) by TURBT between 2001 and 2009 were included. Cystectomy-free survival, recurrence-free survival (RFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors of each type of survival. Results Of 145 patients, 135 underwent bladder preservation and 10 underwent immediate radical cystectomy (RC). Among the latter, 9 patients showed downstaging. During a median follow-up of 132 months (interquartile range, 96–161 months), 13 patients underwent RC, with a 10-year cystectomy-free survival rate of 83.9%. Seventy patients (48.3%) had recurrence, and the 10-year RFS rate was 48.9%. Progression occurred in 12 patients (8.3%), with a 10-year PFS rate of 90.1%. Death occurred only in patients who exhibited progression; 5 patients (3.4%) died of bladder cancer, and the 10-year CSS rate was 96.5%. Tumors greater than 3 cm were associated with RC, and a high tumor grade predicted recurrence. RC was related to progression and cancer-specific mortality. Conclusions Although high-grade tumors require careful follow-up, bladder preservation with TURBT and intravesical BCG instillation can enable the successful management of selected patients with stage T2a MIBC less than 3 cm, without carcinoma in situ or tumor-associated hydronephrosis, in a nonmetastatic setting. |
