Description
Valerio Santarelli and a large team study cancer returning above the bladder in this 2026 multi-centre paper. After bladder removal for cancer, the remaining upper urinary tract can grow the same cancer years later, sometimes forcing removal of a kidney and its tube.
Of 1,804 bladder-removal patients, 85, about five percent, later needed that second operation, typically around 29 months on. Younger age, smoking, prior bladder surface treatments, and positive cut edges at the first surgery predicted the return. Matched comparisons showed far worse cancer survival for the return group, and most returns were already muscle-invasive when found. The authors demand standardised, risk-based long-term checks of the upper tract.
