BLADDER CANCER
1. What proportion of deaths from bladder cancer could be improved if we could do a cystectomy earlier in the right people?
2. Do we allow the natural history of CIS to become evident with extravesical (prostate, upper tract) extension by delaying cystectomy with conservative treatment?
3. What is the importance of divergent histology on bladder cancer management?
4. What is the optimal integration of systemic chemotherapy along with cystectomy?
5. Partial cystectomy
BLADDER CANCER
The patient and urologist must
walk a tightrope to not remove the
bladder too early but not remove it
too late.

Conclusions
• The majority of deaths from bladder cancer occur within 1 year of diagnosis and thus the greatest benefit will likely come from other factors– Earlier detection/screening– Improved systemic therapy
• Improving physician/patient decision-making with clinical data and understanding progression risk better may avoid 30-40% of bladder cancer deaths
BLADDER CANCER GOALS OF TREATMENT
• LOW GRADE
• HIGH GRADE CHANGE IN
• RECURRENCE RATE
• WORTHLESS !
• MUST ELIMINATE HIGH GRADE CANCER
RECURRENCE RATE
INTRAVESICAL THERAPY
• Change in paradigm:
– Surveillance works for HG Ta or T1 or CIS ONLY if there is no progression. Once progression occurs, we have lost 20-30% survival.
BLADDER CANCER SURGERY
Which are the most dangerous cancers?
• CIS• Papillary Ca and CIS• T1• High grade T1 with CIS:
Answer: High grade T1 and CIS: knows how to invade and mucosa abnormal
CIS
• CIS must be viewed as a potentially pan-urothelial disease. The longer the disease is allowed to persist, the greater the chance for:
1. Extravesical spread
2. Invasion
CIS: HOW DOES IT GET THERE?
Cystectomy specimens• Intramural ureter: 35%• Prostatic ducts: 43%
Late recurrences with CIS treated with BCG• Upper tracts: 25% (5 yrs)• Prostate: 24% (1 yr)• Seminal vesicles: 8 cases
Pagetoid spread MUST be a mechanism
T1 BLADDER CAHOW DO WE DO ?
• How many patients have residual tumor at second resection? Answer: 20-40%
(Jakse et al, 2004)
• Well, that’s when other people do the resection, not me.
OK, what if it is only 10% ? That’s still 10% who will get insufficient treatment.
HG T1 with focal micro-papillary
T1 BLADDER CA:OUR CONCEPTS
1.If TURBT & BCG works, everyone happy
2.If TURBT & BCG doesn’t’ work, I’ll find out before muscle invasion
3.Even if muscle invasion does occur, I can take out the bladder and results will not be as bad as usual T2
T1 BLADDER CAHOW DO WE DO IN A PINCH ?
• “I’ll find the recurrence before it invades the muscle”
Wrong !
Progression to T2 or greater occurs in 10-50% of cases.

T1 BLADDER CANCERHOW DO WE DO ?
• “Since I found the muscle-invading recurrence early, the patient will still do well”.
Wrong ! • The literature doesn’t support this notion and
patients do just as badly or worse.Herr and Sogani, J Urol 166:1296, 2001
Yiou et al, BJU 89:374,2002

T1 BLADDER CANCER
• “Well, it’s crazy to take the bladder out in everyone with a T1 cancer”
• I agree !!! Let’s pick out the BAD T1 cancers
Montie
EVILT1 BLADDER CANCER
1.Bad location (inaccessible to good TUR)
2.Multifocal T1
3.Lymphovascular invasion (LVI)
4. Recurrent T1 on reresection
5. T1 after BCG6. T1 without muscle
in specimen 7. ? Abnormal
markers8. ? T1b
Re-resect all T1 cancers, no matter who does the initial one
HIGH GRADE T1 AND CIS
• Change in paradigm:
– Surveillance works ONLY if there is no progression. Once progression occurs, we have lost 20-30% survival.
IF NO CR, TAKE OUT BLADDER
Urothelial Divergent Histology
• Definition: Bladder cancer with both urothelial and non-urothelial components, such as:
1. Squamous2. Glandular (adeno)3. Nested4. Micropapillary5. Plasmacytoid6. Signet cell7. Lymphoepithlioma8. Small cell9. Sarcomatoid
Pathological spectrum of mixed histology component: Rajal Shah MD
Squamous39%
Glandular18%
Sarcomatoid11%
Micropapillary10%
Small cell9%
Lymphoepithelial1%
Multiple12%
Squamous and Glandular most common followed bySarcomatoid, Micropapillary and Small cell
112 of 448 (25%) of TURBTs contained Mixed Histology
Results
• UC with mixed histology were uniformly (100%) high grade
• Only one tumor with mixed histology was non-invasive (99% demonstrated invasion of at least lamina propria –T1 disease)
Extra vesicular disease at cystectomy Independent Variable Hazard Ratio (95% CI) P-value Mixed versus Pure Histology 2.6 (1.3,5.2) 0.0072 Clinical stage 0.0001 T2 versus <T2 2.9 (1.3,6.3) T3/T4 versus <T2 7.7 (3.0,19.6) Age 0.0085 55-64 versus <55 1.2 (0.4,3.7) 65-74 versus <55 3.1 (1.0,9.6) 75+ versus <55 3.9 (1.3,12.0) Male versus Female 1.2 (0.5,2.8) 0.7462
TURBT CYSTECTOMY
(295 patients underwent cystectomy: 90 in mixed histology group and 205 in pure UC group)
Conclusions
• Divergent differentiation common in TURBT~30%• Micropapillary as well other types of divergent
differentiation present at TURBT is associated with high pathologic stage at cystectomy and usually with a poor prognosis
• Response to BCG or systemic treatment uncertain but patients with T1 disease should be offered aggressively early radical cystectomy (currently well accepted with micropapillary variant)
• Just in the last month, I have had 3 cases initially called urothelial but reclassified as divergent with micropapillary, small cell, or plasmacytoid/signet ring components on review at UM

**p= 0.075 (2-sided), thus called non-sig; now significant at 7 years FU for both survival and locoregional control
*** 11% survival advantage for T3/T4a, marginal for T1 and T2
UM philosphy: neoadjuvant chemo for all T2 unless reason not to
What about Partial Cystectomy?
• Candidates: single tumor in space and time, no CIS, good location
• With these criteria, only 2-3 % of patients qualify
• Age is NOT an indication: a bad cancer operation in a 60 y/o does not become a good cancer operation in an 80 y/o

Bladder Cancer Outcomes
• What proportion of deaths from bladder cancer could be improved if we could do a cystectomy earlier in the right people? 30%
• Do we allow the natural history of CIS to become evident with extravesical (prostate, upper tract) extension by delaying cystectomy with conservative treatment? Yes, I bet
Bladder Cancer Outcomes
• What is the importance of divergent histology on bladder cancer management? Very
• What is the optimal integration of systemic chemotherapy along with cystectomy? All muscle invasive get neoadjuvant
• Isn’t partial cystectomy safer in an older person? Not if it doesn’t get rid of all the cancer
