Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Bladder Following Augmentation Cystoplasty for the Neuropathic Bladder

Abstract: This study supports the hypothesis that bladder augmentation appears to be an independent risk factor for TCC, with a lag time of less than 20 years. We recommend endoscopic surveillance of all patients with a history of bladder augmentation beginning 10 years after initial surgery.

“…61 For those three patients, the ages at augmentation were 8, 20 and 24 years, and the ages at TCC diagnosis were 29, 37 and 44 years, respectively. 62 This observation, supported by findings at other centres, 63 is an important one, as these cancers will be seen by adult urologists, not the pediatric specialists who follow them at and around the time of their augmentations.…”

“…Augmentation with bowel has been associated with a bladder cancer incidence of 1.2% to 3.8%. 15 The most interesting finding from these studies was that the bladder malignancies, regardless of augmentation, were more advanced stage and invasive, which for reasons unknown, differs markedly from the general population. Thus, it is of paramount importance that spina bifida patients continue regular urologic follow-up into adulthood.…”

“…However, this strategy is associated with early and longterm complications, including bowel resection and anastomosis, urolithiasis, excessive mucous production, bowel obstruction, metabolic abnormalities, and secondary malignancies. 13,14 Tissue engineering may provide a novel method for urinary diversion without intestine substitution.…”
