Few studies assessed this specific topic in the setting of Ta low-grade (LG) urothelial carcinoma (UC) of the bladder. The aim of this study was to assess if the absence of detrusor muscle at pathologic report has a negative impact on recurrence free probability in patients with a Ta LG UC of the bladder. METHODS: A multicenter TURBt database was queried for: “low-grade Ta, UC of the bladder”. All patients treated between 2008 and 2018 with tumor grade assessed according to both ISUP and WHO grading systems and with a minimum follow-up of 1-yr were included. Patients with previous history of high-grade UC were excluded. Baseline demographic, clinical and pathologic data were analyzed. EORTC risk group was recorded. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to assess the predictive role of clinical and pathologic data on Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS) probability, computed at 12, 36, 60 months after TURBt. RESULTS: Overall, 203 consecutive patients were included. Most of them were men (84%), median age was 69 yrs (IQR: 61-77). Patients and tumors characteristics were reported in Table1. At Kaplan-Meier analysis low-risk EORTC cohort displayed a significantly higher RFS probability compared with intermediate-risk cohort (5-yr probability 89.5% vs 72.4%, respectively; log-rank p=0.011. Figure 1a). At univariable Cox regression multiple tumors (HR 1.36, 95%CI 1.02-1.82; p=0.037), tumor diameter ≥3cm (HR 2.8, 95%CI 1.01-7.9; p=0.049), previous history of UC ≤1 yr (HR 1.96, 95%CI 1.02-3.75; p=0.043) and combined EORTC risk group (HR 3.15, 95%CI 1.23-8; p=0.017) were significant predictors of recurrence. Absence of detrusor muscle at pathologic report (HR 1.45, 0.61-3.45; p=0.4. Figure 1b) and adjuvant intravesical treatments (HR 0.95, 95%CI 0.5-1.78; p=0.87) had negligible impacts on RFS probabilities (Table 2). CONCLUSIONS: EORTC risk group is a strong predictive tool to assess the risk of recurrences in patients with Ta-LG UC of the bladder. Absence of detrusor muscle in the TURBt specimen has negligible role on recurrence of patients with Ta-LG tumors, therefore it should no longer be considered as a mandatory data to assess prognosis or treatment schedule.
