Detection of Her-2/Neu Cep 17 Mutations at Invasive Bladder Cancer

  • Chapter
Bladder Disease, Part A

Abstract

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder is the eighth most common cancer in Germany;1 the tumor varies greatly in its biological behavior. Of superficial TCC (Ta, Tl), up to 70% will eventually be recurrent; 10 to 15% will progress to muscle invasion (≥ T2).4 About 50% of patients with muscle-invasive bladder tumors subsequently develop metastases.34,35
