Abstract:
PURPOSE:Throughout the past years, several studies have shown that fluorescence cystoscopy with ALA (5-aminolevulinic acid) improves the detection rate of superficial bladder tumors by approximately 20 % compared to standard white light cystoscopy. These results suggest a reduced rate of residual/recurrent tumors with the routine use of ALA fluorescence technique prior to bladder tumor resection. The present prospectively randomized study was performed to verify this hypothesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 115 bladder tumor patients were randomized for initial resection under white light or ALA fluorescence. After 6 to 8 weeks, a second-look resection was performed in all patients guided by ALA fluorescence. Additional white light cystoscopies were performed after 3, 6 and 12 months. RESULTS:The second-look resection did not find a tumor in 31 of 51 (59 %) patients initially resected under white light guidance compared to 43 of 51 (84 %) patients in the fluorescence group. This difference was statistically significant (p = 0.005). At 12 months, a tumor was not found in 17 of 48 patients from the white light group vs. 25 of 47 patients from the fluorescence group (p = 0.03). Seven patients were lost to follow-up. CONCLUSIONS:By reducing otherwise inevitable re-operations, fluorescence cystoscopy decreases morbidity and lowers treatment costs.
