Abstract: ObjectiveTo observe the effect of intravesical instillation of Brucea Javanica oil emulsion on recurrence of bladder cancer after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) operation.Methods187 patients with superficial bladder carcinoma after TUR-Bt operation were randomly divided into the group A (85 cases) and group B (102 cases). Patients of the group A were treated with instillation of Brucea Javanica oil emulsion; those of the group B were treated with mitomycin. A three-years following up was performed to observe the recurrence and side effects.ResultsAfter a 3-years following up, the recurrence rate of group A was 12.94%, lower than that of group B (34.31%). The side effects were seldom seen in the group A.ConclusionThe effect of intravesical instillation of Brucea Javanica oil emulsion to prevent the recurrence of bladder cancer after TUR-Bt operation is favorable.
