Transurethral microwave radiation effectively treated bladder neoplasm in 42 patients with no serious complications. This method leverages microwave-induced hyperthermia to enhance cellular immunity, offering superior long-term results for bladder tumors.

Area of Science:

Oncology
Biophysics
Immunology

Context:

Bladder neoplasm presents a significant clinical challenge.
Exploring novel therapeutic modalities is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
Transurethral microwave radiation (TU MTR) offers a minimally invasive approach.

Purpose:

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transurethral microwave radiation (TU MTR) for treating bladder neoplasm.
To investigate the underlying mechanism of TU MTR, involving hyperthermia and cellular immunity.
To assess the long-term results and compare them with existing treatments.

Summary:

A study involving 42 patients with bladder neoplasm treated with transurethral microwave radiation (TU MTR) from March 1990 to October 1991.
The treatment demonstrated high effectiveness with no serious complications reported.
