En-bloc party! RCT of TURBT with Jeremy Teoh
Should we remove bladder cancers piece-meal by chopping them into little pieces, or should we try and remove en bloc with a margin around the base?? This very nice randomised controlled trial from our friends in Hong Kong demonstrates that the recurrence rate is significantly lower if we use the all-too-rarely used en bloc technique. Dr Jeremy Teoh from the Chinese University Hong Kong joins us to discuss his paper just published in European Urology.
Check out the YouTube version for a video of the technique.
