Pitfalls of accurate staging

Analysis of 2596 patients with superficial bladder cancer from 7 EORTC trials.Scoring system based on: number of tumors, tumor size, prior recurrence rate, T stage, CIS and grade to determine recurrence and progression rate

Prognostic indicators (pathologic) Divergent differentiation (MP)
Non-classic morphologic features within a urothelial tumor such as glandular, small cell, glandular, small cell, micropapillary is most commonly encountered in the setting of high grade disease, and more common in invasive tumors.

Prognostic indicators (pathologic) The importance of the muscularis
mucosae
“There is no continuous layer of smooth muscle separating the connective tissue into two distinctive compartments but only scattered fascicles only scattered fascicles loosely associated with blood vessels. Such a poorly demarcated landmark in a mal-oriented specimen may invite to observational inaccuracies”
Murphy
-
Prognostic indicators (pathologic) The importance of the muscularis mucosae
• Pagano reported the importance of the depth of penetration in the lamina propria
• Patients with T1b had a higher progression rate (58% vs 36%) and death rate (45% vs 23%) compared to T1a (Holmang)T1a (Holmang)
• On a multivariate analysis, only depth of penetration and CIS were independent predictor of outcome (Bernardini)
However, the identification of muscularis mucosae is a difficult task, At the present time, standardized criteria have not been adopted by pathologists .

• Grade is the most significant tumor variable in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (Torti)cancer (Torti)
• The National Bladder Cancer Collaborative Group A reported 2, 11 and 45% progression in Grade 1, 2 and 3(Heney)
• 10 year survival rate of 78% for T1G2 and 50% for T1G3 (Jakse)

Prognostic indicators (pathologic)Grading system
With the new classification, the majority of T1 tumors are classified as high grade and the value of the grade is greatly diminished.

HR- NMIBC: PRO conservative treatment
There is no definitive evidence that one approach is better than other in terms of cancer specific survival
There is evidence that QoL is reduced after radical cystectomyExtremely delayed radical cystectomy can significantly compromize
survival
There is evidence that overall 60-70% of radical cystectomies are unnecessaryConsistent peri and post-operative morbidity Not negligible introperative mortalityReduced QoL

A consistent proportion (73%) of surveyed urologists still opt for intravesical therapy to treat high grade T1 disease that has failed BCG
Patients with Ta-T1, high-grade disease that failed BCG twice would receive
another course of intravesical chemotherapy (35%) or immunotherapy (38%).
Only 19% of surveyed urologists preferred pursuing radical treatment in these
patients.
Urologists trained after 1985 are three times more likely to treat T1
high-grade disease with CIS that had failed BCG with RC than the remaining
Urologists working at reference high volume centres or working in a
collaborative group tend to treat HR-NMIBC who failed after BCG with RC
This can be related to availability of assistance from partners for major surgery
and management of the expected complications
intravesical therapy to treat high grade T1 disease that has failed BCG twice.

GRADING
According to our retrospective internal investigation concerning HR-NMIBC patients, the WHO 1973 grading classification system wasdocumented to be more reliable for the oncologic outcomeprediction when compared to WHO-2004 classification.
High grade Low grade
-
Methods – Study population
We retrospectively evaluated clinical data of 266 consecutivepatients diagnosed with first presentation of T1 stage bladdercancer at transurethral resection (TUR) between 2004-2011
All patients with concomitant CIS were excluded (n=20)All patients with concomitant CIS were excluded (n=20)
In all cases, the grade was assigned by a singleuropathologist simultaneously as high grade and as G2 or G3according to the WHO 2004 and WHO 1973 classificationsystems, respectively
All patients included in the study were submitted to Re-TURand received immunotherapy with SWOG-BCG scheduledtreatment

Based on the mono-istitutional high-volume centerexperience with a single expert uro-pathologist, theWHO 1973 classification was proved to bemore reliable as prognostic factor in T1 NMIBCpatientspatients
This should be kept in consideration in the decision makingabout conservative rather than radical treatment.
