Sažetak
A total of 67 patients with 86 bladder tumors underwent ultrasonographic examination with transurethral, transabdominal and transrectal probe in an attempt to evaluate its accuracy in the staging of bladder tumors. All tumors diagnosed by ultrasonography were divided into into three groups according to the final histopathological diagnosis: (U1) superficial, (U2) muscle invasive tumors and (U3) tumors with perivesical extension. The findings were compared with computed tomography results in the staging of blader carcinoma. High staging accuracy and low cost confirmed the importance of ultrasonography in staging of bladder carcinoma.
