Abstract
The prognostic value of number and composition of stromal effector cells in specimens removed during radical surgical treatment for transitional cell bladder carcinoma (Ta-4NxM0) was studied. Higher 5-year survival and less risk of recurrence corresponded to the lower count of effector cells (p = 0.007): lymphocytes (p = 0.024 and p = 0.057) and segmented leukocytes (p = 0.037 and p = 0.042). In patients without progressive cancer, the independent predictors of 5-year survival were the degree of homogeneous mast cell distribution (p = 0.041) and the count stromal lymphocytes (p = 0.070) while in those with stage pTa-pT1, these were the number of segmented leukocytes (p = 0.009) and lymphocytes (p = 0.025) of the stroma (R2 = 0.32; p = 0.008).
