Abstract
Transurethral strip biopsy of bladder tumors using an electrosurgical snare was tested to determine whether or not this technique provides any advantage to the histologic examination of bladder cancers and to the management of superficial bladder tumors as a routine treatment. Our research results confirm that the strip biopsy technique can be applied as an alternative transurethral management procedure for treatment of superficial bladder tumors. Moreover, the results demonstrate that the procedure can also provide significantly greater histologic diagnostic advantages for bladder cancers than are possible through cold cup biopsy or transurethral resection.
