Description:

Bladder cancer is a common malignant disease characterized by frequent recurrences. The stage of disease at diagnosis and the presence of surrounding carcinoma in situ are important in determining the disease course of an affected individual. In this context, the authors report the identification of clinically relevant subclasses of bladder carcinoma using expression microarray analysis: Ta, T1 and T2+.

Sample distribution:

• Dyrskjot: 9 T2+, 20 Ta and 11 T1.
