281 Background: To evaluate the efficacy of immediate post-TUR MMC instillation in high risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer treated with BCG. Methods: From January 2000 to December 2007, 162 high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer patients underwent TUR and BCG instillation at our institution. Among them 76 patients received additional immediate post-TUR MMC instillation (Group A), and remaining 86 patients underwent TUR and BCG instillation only (Group B). 60mg of MMC was mixed with 50ml of normal saline and was instilled in bladder within 2 hours after TUR. Tice strain BCG 12.5mg was used with 6-week induction course followed by 3-week maintenance every 3 months. The recurrence rate, time to recurrence, and stage and grade at recurrence were investigated. The mean follow-up was 33.4 months. Results: There were no significant differences in the characteristics of both groups, including age, sex, stage, and grade. Group A showed significantly lower recurrence rate than Group B (26.3% vs 48.8%, p=0.003). Group A showed somewhat longer time to recurrence but it was not statistically different (24.9 months vs 21.8 months, p=0.293). The change in stage and grade at recurrence were not different between 2 groups ( Table ). The 5-year recurrence free survival rate was significantly higher in Group A (72% vs 42%, p=0.003). Conclusions: The immediate post-TUR MMC instillation significantly reduced recurrence in high risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer patients treated by BCG. But it did not influenced the stage and grade at recurrence. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Background: Many regimes of intravesical therapy have been tried in attempt to reduce the recurrence rate of non muscle invasive bladder cancer, these generally require frequent attendance for instillation. Multiple non-comparative studies have demonstrated the favourable outcomes of the immediate treatment by instillation of mitomycin C after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) in cases of non-muscle invasive Transitional Cell Carcinoma.Objective: To compare frequency of tumour recurrence in low risk transitional cell carcinoma of bladder between single dose Mitomycin C instillation and control group.Material and Methods: This study was conducted at urology departmentsaidu teaching hospital and Nawaz sharif kidney center swat. Study Design Quasi Experimental.Study Duration was (From: Feb 2018 to February 2019). Total 62 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were selected. Patient were divided between group A and B according to Non probability purposive sampling. TURBT was done in all patients. In those assigned to group A Mitomycin C 40mg was instilled through foleys catheter and clamped within 12 hrs of resection once haematuria has cleared. Mitomycin C was retained for 2 hrs and then foleys catheter was removed.Results: Mean age of patients in Group-A and in Group-B was 54.90±11.48 and 60.03±13.58 years respectively. In Group-A 1(3.2%) and in Group-B 9(29%) patients had recurrence after 3 months follow up time period. Recurrence rate of Group-B was significantly higher. i.e. (p-value=0.006).Conclusion: Results of this study showed the superiority of mitomycin C in patients with low risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer in terms of significantly lower recurrence rate as compared to that of control group. So, it can be said that single mitomycin C instillation significantly decrease recurrence in patients with low risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer.
