Abstract
The present study was planned in the Department of Urology, MMIMSR Mullana, Haryana, India. The study was performed for one year. Total 50 cases of the proven histological diagnosis of nonmuscle invasive urothelial cancer with either high grade or T1 cancers on histopathology were enrolled in the present study. The data generated from the present study concludes that TURBT is necessary in patients with solid bladder tumors. The presence of tumor at restage confers a higher risk of recurrence and progression. Poor patient compliance for a restage TURBT remains a matter of concern.
