[Endovascular therapy in locally disseminated bladder cancer].
Continuous intraarterial perfusion with cytostatics (20 patients) and arterial embolization for profuse hematuria (10 patients) was carried out in a study group of 30 patients with locally-advanced urinary bladder cancer. Endovascular therapy provides a contribution to treatment of this pathology. In some situations, it may be used to cope with life-threatening complications and to prepare the patient for radical surgery. In inoperable cases, this procedure may serve for palliation.
