Experiences in treating cancer of the bladder.

Experience in the treatment of urinary bladder cancer based upon observation of 306 cases has been presented. Two hundred and thirteen patients were treated surgically by performing in 151 cases partial cystectomy and in 62 cases total cystectomy. Conservative treatment was applied in 75 patients. In the authors' opinion the best method of treating bladder cancer is its radical excision. A simple and easy method of implantation of the ureters into the rectum is described.

Malignant tumours of the renal pelvis.

A review of the clinical data of 22 patients with malignant tumours of the renal pelvis, accounting for 10% of the total patient material of renal tumours, is presented. The earliest manifestation was prevalently haematuria, less often pain. In two thirds of the cases the diagnosis was established on radiological evidence and in one third the process remained undetected until surgical exposure of the kidney. The diagnostic difficulties involved by tumours of the renal pelvis and the value of the diagnostic methods are discussed. Nephroureterectomy with excision of a cuff of bladder was carried out in 15, nephrectomy in 5 cases. Three of the 22 patients have survived five years. Early diagnosis followed by total nephroureterectomy without delay may bring some improvement in the poor prognosis of these tumours.
