The Journal of Urology

Abstract

Our experience in treating 13 patients with bladder tumors involving the abdominal wall is presented. A technique is described wherein part of the suprapubic abdominal wall is excised and the resultant defect is closed with ox fascia. Of the 9 patients treated surgically 8 have had no local recurrence but distant metastases have developed. Presently 2 patients are clinically free of disease, 18 and 22 months after abdominal wall excision. One of these 2 patients required a subsequent groin dissection and was then lost to followup.
