Urine cytology coupled with cystoscopic examination has been and remains the standard in the initial evaluation of lower urinary tract lesions to rule out bladder cancer. However, cystoscopy is invasive and may miss some flat lesions, whereas cytology has low sensitivity in low-grade papillary disease. Additional lab-based or office-based markers are needed to aid in the evaluation of these lesions. Recently, many such markers have been developed for the purpose of improving the cytologic diagnosis of bladder malignancies. In this review, we will first discuss conventional cytomorphologic analysis of urine cytology followed by a discussion of markers that have been developed in the past for detection and surveillance of urothelial carcinoma. We will focus on how these markers can be used in conjunction with urine cytology in daily practice.
尿细胞学检查结合膀胱镜检查一直是并仍然是初步评估下尿路病变以排除膀胱癌的标准方法。然而,膀胱镜检查具有侵入性,可能会遗漏一些扁平病变,而细胞学检查在低级别乳头状疾病中的敏感性较低。需要额外的基于实验室或门诊的标志物来辅助评估这些病变。最近,为了改善膀胱恶性肿瘤的细胞学诊断,已经开发了许多这样的标志物。在这篇综述中,我们将首先讨论尿细胞学的传统细胞形态学分析,然后讨论过去开发的用于检测和监测尿路上皮癌的标志物。我们将重点讨论这些标志物如何在日常实践中与尿细胞学检查结合使用。
