Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We reviewed 50 cases of bladder cancer treated with the hydrostatic pressure technique. Results were encouraging when 1) single or multiple papillary tumors were not located around the ureteral orifice, with a presumed depth of tumor infiltration within T2, I) there was no history of open operations, 3) there was observed activity of immunological surveillance, for example a positive reaction to a tuberculin test, and 4) management of anesthesia was satisfactory. Hydrostatic pressure therapy is not palliative treatment for far-advanced cases of bladder cancers but should be the first choice for new cases beyond the scope for transurethral operations and when indications in tumor and host condition are satisfied.
