[Treatment of bladder tumors].

Experience with surgical and combined treatment of bladder tumours are reported. 587 patients were subjected to operation only, 71 received complex therapy. The patients were classified according to the TNM system, assessment of the results was based on five-year survival. In the group in which the tumour involved only the mucous membrane and did not infiltrate the bladder wall, the results were favourable (85%), while in the group when the bladder wall was deeply infiltrated, there was no five-year survival irrespective of the treatment having been purely surgical or surgical combined with cytostatic or X-ray therapy.
