Survival Following the Diagnosis of Noninvasive Bladder Cancer: WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology Versus WHO Classification Systems
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeThe WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology classification of bladder cancer, introduced in 1998, differs from the traditional 1973 WHO classification. Few studies have reported survival data based on the WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology classification and none has demonstrated clear superiority compared to the 1973 WHO system. In a large, nonselected population of patients with bladder cancer we rated all incident tumors using each system and compared long-term patient survival.Materials and MethodsNew Hampshire residents with bladder cancer diagnosed between 1994 and 2000 were identified through the State Cancer Registry. Slides were retrieved from more than 90% of cases and reviewed by a single pathologist. Tumors were classified according to WHO and WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology criteria. Overall patient survival was determined for the cohort of 504 patients after an average of 7 years using a national mortality database.ResultsFor both grading systems there was a gradient of progressively lower survival times from the lowest grade to the highest grade tumors. Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology system were 1.9 (1.0–3.4) for low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma and 3.0 (1.5–6.0) for high grade papillary urothelial carcinoma, compared to papillary urothelial neoplasms of low malignant potential. For the WHO (1973) system compared to grade 1 tumors the hazard ratio for grade 2 tumors was 1.8 (1.1–3.1) and for grade 3 was 2.4 (1.2–4.7).ConclusionsAdvantages of the WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology bladder tumor classification include more detailed diagnostic criteria, the ability to define a lesion with minimal malignant potential and the ability to identify a larger group of patients needing closer surveillance. However, we found that the WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology tumor categories did not detect a clear overall survival advantage compared to the WHO (1973) classification system.
