Abstract

Our findings confirm the alternative role of FGFR3 and TP53 mutations in the development of bladder cancer. Together these two genetic markers are attributed to 62% of the tumors studied. Tumors with both wild type genes included urothelial carcinomas of all stages and grades and may develop through another genetic pathway. To elucidate complete molecular profile of bladder tumors further additional studies are needed.
