โœฆ Synopsis

A retrospective analysis of 342 patients with carcinoma of the bladder treated by radical cystectomy at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center with or without planned preoperative irradiation revealed that preoperative irradiation significantly improved survival of patients with deeply infiltrating tumours (pathological Stage B2 and C), and reduced the prognostic importance of distinctions between pathological B1 and B2 neoplasms. Preoperative irradiation had no discernible effect on the survival of patients with superficially infiltrating neoplasms.
