Transurethral resection is an effective therapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. However, the high rates of recurrence and significant risk of progression in higher grade tumors mandates additional therapy with intravesical agents. In this review we discuss the role of various intravesical agents currently in use including the immunomodualtory agent BCG and chemotherapeutic agents. We discuss the current guidelines and the role of these therapeutic agents in the context of higher grade Ta and T1 tumors.
经尿道切除术是治疗非肌层浸润性膀胱癌的有效方法。然而,高级别肿瘤的高复发率和显著进展风险要求使用膀胱内灌注药物进行额外治疗。在本综述中,我们讨论了目前使用的各种膀胱内灌注药物的作用,包括免疫调节药物卡介苗(BCG)和化疗药物。我们还讨论了当前的指南以及这些治疗药物在高级别Ta和T1肿瘤治疗中的作用。
