Performance of Urinary Markers for Detection of Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma: Is Upper Tract Urine More Accurate than Urine from the Bladder?

Table 1

Tumor stages and grades of the cohorts with urine markers determined in UUT-derived urine and bladder-derived urine.

		Cohort with markers determined in UUT-derived urine, n (%)	Cohort with markers determined in voided urine, n (%)
T-stage	pTa	27 (45.7)	16 (27.4)
	pT1	12 (20.3)	4 (14.8)
	>pT1	14 (23.7)	5 (18.5)
Grade	G1	23 (39.0)	12 (52.2)
	G2	22 (37.3)	9 (39.1)
	G3	8 (13.6)	2 (8.7)
Cis		6 (10.2)	2 (8.7)

UUT = upper urinary tract; Cis = carcinoma in situ. ^∗Concomitant Cis.
