Resumen
Objetivo

Evaluación de la utilidad de los marcadores tumorales para el screening y el diagnóstico del cáncer transicional de vejiga

Métodos

Identificación y análisis crítico de la literatura publicada en marcadores tumorales de vejiga mediante una búsqueda en Medline. Se ha comparado la sensibilidad y especificidad de los distintos marcadores

Resultados

Los métodos convencionales no invasivos para el diagnóstico (síntomas y citología de orina) y para el screening y seguimiento del carcinoma transicional de vejiga, no deben ser considerados suficientemente sensibles. Algunos marcadores tumorales pueden ser una alternativa razonable a la citología de orina convencional

Conclusión

Los marcadores tumorales para el screening y el seguimiento del cáncer de vejiga han de ser considerados una alternativa a la citología. En el futuro, marcadores más sensibles y específicos deben sustituir asimismo a la cistoscopia de rutina

Abstract
Purpose

Review the tumor markers for screening and diagnosis of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder

Methods

The published literature on bladder cancer markers was identified using a MEDLINE search and critically analyzed. The sensitivity and specificity of the various markers were compared

Results

Conventional non-invasive methods for diagnosis (symptoms and urine cytology) and for screening and follow-up of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder are not very sensitive and must not be considered sufficient. Some tumor markers seem to be a good alternative to the routine urinary cytology

Conclusion

The role of tumor markers for screening and follow-up of bladder tumors as an alternative to cytology deserve consideration. In the future, more sensitive and specific markers may replace routine cystoscopy
