Performance of fluorescence <i>in situ</i> hybridization in detecting lower <i>versus</i> upper tract urothelial carcinoma
FISH demonstrated overall similar sensitivity and specificity in detecting BC vs. UTUC, while the sensitivity was higher in BC for T1 or ≥T2 tumors. FISH was more sensitive in detecting more invasive or advanced tumors. The tumor stage and the patient's age were predictors of the FISH result in BC.
