Re TUR BT Indication

Treatment of a TaT1 high-grade tumour and a T2 tumour is completely

different; correct staging is
therefore important. It has been demonstrated that a second TURB :
- Increase recurrence-free survival (LE: 2a)
- Improve outcomes after BCG treatment (LE: 3)
- Provide prognostic information

Patients with BCG treated T1G3/HG tumours :

- improved recurrence-free survival
- Progression-free survival (PFS) and
- Overall survival (OS) only in patients without muscle in the specimen from
initial resection
