• TITLE: Follow-Up Upper Tract Imaging Post-Nephroureterectomy for TCC: Need for a Protocol Driven Approach?

  AUTHORS: Srijit Banerjee, Sudhanshu Chitale, Katherine Burnand, Neil Burgess

  KEYWORDS: Follow Up; Transitional Cell Carcinoma; Upper Tract; Urothelial

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Urology, Vol.3 No.1, February 26, 2013

  ABSTRACT: Objectives: We present a retrospective analysis of follow-up strategy adapted by different clinician in managing UTUC cases. Methods: Case notes of 83 patients undergoing nephroureterectomy for UTUC at our institute were selected. Their follow-up pattern and any imaging protocols for upper tract surveillance were studied retrospectively. Results: Our study highlighted diversity in clinicians’ overall approach at a time when no approved guidelines or standardised protocols were available. Conclusions: This study clearly highlighted the need for a protocol driven approach; which has lately been addressed with the introduction of EAU guidelines on this subject matter and majority of practising Urologists will adhere to it.
