[Echography and cytology versus cystoscopy in the follow-up of patients with superficial tumors of the bladder].

We present a prospective study on 100 consecutive patients diagnosed with superficial vesical tumour who have had a transurethral resection done on them. For the detection of relapses we use the echography-cytology association and confirm the findings observed by performing a cystoscopy. In view of the high rate of concordancy obtained we conclude by backing this association as a possible alternative to be applied in the control of specific patients with superficial vesical tumours.
