Acceptance of the value of urinary cytology in transitional cell carcinoma has been mixed. Over-all accuracy is only fair to good and the results in mass screening are poor. However, cytology can be valuable in the serial evaluation of selected patients by the collection of multiple specimens. It is an important adjunct in upper tract lesions, in carcinoma in situ and in the evaluation of the patient with unexplained hematuria. Herein we analyze patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium with special reference to the use of cytology irrigation specimens from the bladder and the renal pelvis as an initial diagnostic tool and as an adjunctive technique for the evaluation of recurrence.
尿细胞学检查在移行细胞癌中的价值认可度不一。总体准确率仅为尚可到良好，在大规模筛查中的结果不佳。然而，通过采集多个标本，细胞学检查在对特定患者的系列评估中可能具有价值。在上尿路病变、原位癌以及对不明原因血尿患者的评估中，它是一项重要的辅助检查。在此，我们分析了尿路上皮移行细胞癌患者，特别提及了使用来自膀胱和肾盂的细胞学冲洗标本作为初始诊断工具以及作为评估复发的辅助技术。
