D Higher incidence in cigarette smokers
This system predicts the clinical outcome and survival for patients who
had surgical resection of their kidney tumor
Metastatic / high-risk = 0%
PROGNOSIS (RATHMELL 2004)
Patients with clear cell RCC had a poorer prognosis
than those with either papillary or sarcomatoid RCC
5-year survival rates:
68.9% clear cell
87.4% papillary
86.7% sarcomatoid
1)Age. 40-70 years old, 55yeas old in average, male: female =2:1
2)Intermittent, painless, gross hematuria. Seldom with renal colic.
3)Cell in urine is examed and found cancer cell.
4)Cystoscopy.
5)IVP: filling defect and deformity in renal pelvis.
6)B-ultrosound and CT scan.

BLADDER CANCER
Incidence
There are approximately 55,000 new cases of bladder, ureter and renal
pelvis cancers in the United States with approximately over 13,000
deaths each year.
Epidemiology
Gender
Men have more incidence of bladder cancer than women and
increased incidence in 7th decade of life.
Race
Cancers are more common in whites than blacks 2:1.
ETIOLOGY AND RISK FACTORS
Cigarette smoking
Analgesic abuse
Analgesic compounds, especially Phenacetin, has been
associated with increased risk of bladder cancer
Chronic urinary inflammation
Occupational exposures
Workers with organic chemicals, rubber, paint, and dye
industries have increased risks of urothelial cancers.
Balkan nephropathy
Increase of cancer with renal pelvis and ureters in patients in
Balkan nephropathy, unknown cause that results in progressive
inflammation of the renal parenchyma
Genetic factors
Families with higher risk of transitional cell carcinoma, no genetic
basis has been found as of yet
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Hematuria
Urinary voiding symptoms
Symptoms of advanced disease usually involve swelling in lower
extremities secondary to a lymphatic obstruction
Pain and frank hematuria
Diagnostic Work-up
CT scan
Ultrasound
Intravenous pyelogram
Urine cytology from both ureters at time of cystoscopy
Bone scan
Chest x-ray
PATHOLOGY
Transitional cell carcinoma constitutes 90-95% of
bladder, ureter and renal pelvis cancers.
