Continent sigmoid bladder after cystectomy: 20 years' experience.

Twenty years' experience in the substitution of an isolated sigmoid segment after radical cystectomy for bladder carcinoma is described. The indication for surgery was isolated, non-transitional cell bladder cancer. The isolated sigmoid segment is placed longitudinally in the isoperistaltic direction. The study is made up of 73 cases. This operation does not make the procedure more radical since it does not increase survival for this illness. However, in relation to other bladder substitution methods, it guarantees a better quality of life after the operation.

Effects of local chemotherapy and immunotherapy on the recurrence and progression of superficial bladder cancer.

409 cases of superficial bladder carcinoma (pTa, pTi, Tis) are reported. They are divided into three groups: 171 patients treated by TUR alone, 124 treated by TUR and local thio-TEPA, and 114 patients treated by TUR and BCG vaccine locally. It was found that the frequency of recurrence fell by 56.7, 41.9 and 26.3%, while the progression of the illness declined correspondingly by 19.8, 16.9 and 11.4%. In other words, in terms of recurrence and progression, the poorest results were found for the group treated by TUR only, and the best results were found with the TUR and BCG group.
