The usage of the paris classification system in urine cytology in the diagnosis of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: a retrospective single-center study
This study provides evidence that a biopsy or follow-up may not be necessary for patients without a prior history of urothelial carcinoma and without exophytic tumors observed on cystoscopy, when the cytological diagnosis is NHGUC or AUC. Furthermore, concurrent hematuria and pyuria may result in a higher cytological classification.
