Local Endoscopic Treatment of Low-Grade Urothelial Tumors in the Upper Urinary Tract—Oncological Outcome of a Consecutive Single-Center Series of 118 Patients
In the patient series, we found that the risk of recurrence following laser ablation of LG UTUC was high; however, it was associated with a low risk of progression and high OS and DSS. Therefore, we conclude that treatment with laser ablation in patients with LG UTUC is safe, although frequent follow-up is needed to detect recurrence.
