ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the clinical significance of invasive urothelial carcinoma that is ambiguous for muscularis propria invasion on initial transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT).METHODS:
All consecutive in-house TURBTs with invasive urothelial carcinoma from 1999 to 2017 that underwent radical cystectomy (RC) were grouped as follows invasion of the lamina propria (INLP; n = 102; 24%), invasion of muscularis propria (INMP; n = 296; 69%) and ambiguous for muscularis propria invasion (AMP; n = 30; 7%). AMP was defined as extensive invasive carcinoma displaying thin muscle bundles where it is difficult to determine with certainty if those muscle bundles represent muscularis mucosae or muscularis propria (detrusor). Cases with any amount of small cell carcinoma or prior therapy were excluded.RESULTS:
The average age was 66 years in INLP, 67 years in INMP, and 65 years in AMP. RC showed invasive carcinoma stage pT2 or above in 50/102 (49%) of INLP vs. 255/296 (86%) of INMP (P ≤ 001) vs. 25/30 (83.33%) of AMP (P = 0.002). Lymph nodes showed metastatic carcinoma in 18/98 (18.36%) of INLP vs. 96/272 (35.29%) of INMP (P = 0.002), and 6/25 (24%) in AMP (P = 0.729). The average follow-up was 48 months (range 0-192). Survival of AMP patients was similar to INLP and both were significantly better than INMP (P = 0.002 and P = 0.016).CONCLUSION:
The great majority of patients with AMP on initial TURBT have advanced disease on RC and emphasizes the need for early repeat TURBT or even consideration of early cystectomy to lower the risk of worse pathological findings and to prolong survival.Palavras-chave
