Abstract

In a retrospective study the prognostic value of flow cytometric DNA analysis was studied in 114 newly diagnosed cases with superficial bladder tumours. G1-tumours were generally diploid, G3-tumours almost exclusively aneuploid. G2-tumours exhibited a bimodal distribution with 50% diploid and 50% aneuploid cases respectively. Recurrence and progression correlated systematically with the ploidy level. Furthermore, the degree of aneuploidy is predictive for proneness to progression.
