What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bipolar En bloc TURBTProcedure or surgery

    patients subjected to Bipolar resection of bladder tumor by Collins loop

  • Monopolar En bloc TURBTProcedure or surgery

    patients subjected to Monopolar resection of bladder tumor by Collins loop (hot Knife)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quality of tumor Resection

    presence of detrusor muscle

    Measured: immediatly post operative

  2. adequacy of tumor Resection

    Presence of residual tumor at the bed of previously resected NMIBC

    Measured: 2 to 6 weeks postoprative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Complications

    Modified Clavien-Dindo classification scale

    Measured: within 30 days post-operative
