Fluorescent Light-Guided Cystoscopy with 5-ALA Aids in Accurate Surgical Margin Detection for TURBO: A Case Report
Recent studies have revealed that transurethral resection in one piece (TURBO) has several benefits over standard transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt), including a higher rate of containing the bladder muscle tissue and single-block resection. Five-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) was approv...

Sumario: | Recent studies have revealed that transurethral resection in one piece (TURBO) has several benefits over standard transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt), including a higher rate of containing the bladder muscle tissue and single-block resection. Five-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) was approved for the detection of bladder tumor treated with TUR-Bt. A 71-year-old male patient who received right nephroureterectomy developed bladder tumor recurrence on routine cystoscopy follow-up. We planned TURBO using fluorescent light-guided cystoscopy with 5-ALA. We herein report a case of bladder tumor successfully treated with TURBO using fluorescent light-guided cystoscopy with 5-ALA to detect the tumor surgical margin. |
