Segmental resection of distal ureter with termino‐terminal ureteric anastomosis vs bladder cuff removal and ureteric re‐implantation for upper tract urothelial carcinoma: results of a multicentre study

Abstract

Patients treated with TT or RR for UTUC showed comparable OS, CSS, RFS and postoperative renal function. Our data suggest that bladder cuff removal is not imperative in the treatment of distal ureteric UTUC, and TT can be a safe solution in selected cases.
