Abstract:Objective: To explore the risk factors for recurrence of non-muscular invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) after transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) combined with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) perfusion. Methods: Patients with intravesical BCG perfusion in our hospital in recent 5 years were selected as subjects. Clinical data including basic demographic characteristics of patients, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) test results after BCG perfusion, TNM stage, tumor histological grade, multiple tumors, history of bladder cancer, recurrence and progression after BCG perfusion were collected. The characteristics of queue data were generalized and summarized. Cox proportional risk regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for recurrence or progression. Results: A total of 69 patients were enrolled, including 58 (84.06%) males and 11 (15.94%) females, with a median age of 64 (55.25-70.00) years. According to the recurrence or not after BCG perfusion, the patients were divided into recurrence group (n=10) and non-recurrence group (n=59). After BCG perfusion, all patients withpositive FISH recurred, while none of the patients with negative FISH recurred. There were no significant differences in gender, age, non-BCG perfusion history in bladder and BCG adverse perfusion reactions between the non-recurrent group and the recurrent group (P>0.05), but patients with later TNM stage, poor tissue differentiation, bladder cancer history, multiple tumors, and positive FISH after BCG perfusion were more likely to relapse (P<0.05). Univariate Cox proportional risk regression analysis showed that positive FISH after BCG perfusion, TNM stage, and multiple tumor were closely correlated with tumor recurrence and progression (P<0.05), but there was no correlation between histological grade and disease progression (P=0.064). The histological grade was correlated with disease recurrence (P=0.038). Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression confirmed that positive FISH after BCG perfusion was an independent risk factor for recurrence [HR: 12.746, 95% CI: 3.828-79.541, P=0.002]. Conclusions: Positive FISH after BCG perfusion, TNM clinical stage and multiple tumors were risk factors for recurrence and progression of bladder cancer. After BCG perfusion, the follow-up interval of patients with negative FISH can be appropriately extended, while patients with positive FISH should be followed closely and the follow-up interval should be appropriately shortened.
