ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To investigate the relationship between surgical modality and clinicopathologic features for ureteral transitional cell carcinoma.METHODS:
The correlation between surgical modality and clinicopathology characteristics of 146 patients with ureteral carcinoma having undergone surgery was evaluated using univariate analysis by a general linear model.RESULTS:
43.8%, 51.4% and 4.8% of patients experienced nephroureterectomy, renal conservation management and palliative operations, respectively, with a mean survival time of 97.3, 101.3 and 51.0 months (p=0.069) accordingly. Univariate analysis by general linear model indicated that the size of lesions, pathologic stage and tumour grade had a statistically significant impact on surgical modality (p=0.000, p=0.001 and p=0.017, respectively).CONCLUSION:
Tumour stage and grade, as well as tumour size, correlate with surgical modality.
