This WHO/ISUP system is an attempt to develop as broad a consensus as possible in the classification of urothelial neoplasms, building upon earlier works and classification systems. It is meant to serve as a springboard for future studies that will help refine this classification, thus enabling us to provide better correlation of these lesions with their biologic behavior using uniform terminology.
世界卫生组织/国际泌尿病理学会(WHO/ISUP)系统旨在借鉴早期的研究成果和分类系统,在尿路上皮肿瘤分类方面达成尽可能广泛的共识。它旨在为未来的研究提供一个跳板,以帮助完善这一分类,从而使我们能够使用统一的术语,更好地将这些病变与其生物学行为联系起来。
