INTRAOPERATIVE BLADDER INJURY ASSESSMENT IN TURBT USING BICEP

Starting soon

Conditions studied: Bladder (Urothelial, Transitional Cell) Cancer, TURBT, Bladder Injury

In brief

Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is the cornerstone procedure in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer but is associated with a spectrum of intraoperative bladder injuries ranging from minor mucosal tears to major perforations. Currently, there is no standardized intraoperative classification system specifically designed to grade and report these injuries during TURBT. This study aims to apply the Bladder Injury Classification System for Endoscopic Procedures (BICEP) to TURBT in order to systematically classify intraoperative bladder injuries, evaluate their management, and explore their association with perioperative and early postoperative outcomes.
