Abstract
AbstractCystoscopy is the current gold standard for diagnosing bladder cancer (Bca), but its invasive nature often results in patient discomfort. This study aims to debise a new strategy to enhance BCa detection. We collected data from 30 BCa patients between January and June 2022. We obtained spontaneously voided urine specimens from these patients before and after administering extracorporeal bladder vibration. These specimens underwent routine cytologic examination and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Furthermore, we conducted a follow‐up 3 months postoperation. We recollected urine specimens before and after extracorporeal bladder vibration, repeating the cytologic examination and FISH. Our findings indicated an increase in the number of exfoliated cells in patients' urine postvibration compared to previbration. The liquid‐based cell staining results showed an increased detection rate of abnormal cells in the urinary sediment of patients with both low and high‐grade urothelial carcinoma postvibration. Similarly, the FISH results revealed an increased detection rate of CEP3 and CEP7 positive cells postvibration. Additionally, 3 months postoperation, we found abnormal cells in the urine of one patient previbration and in three patients postvibration. Further cystoscopic biopsy confirmed that these three patients had developed tumor recurrence. Our study substantiates that the extracorporeal bladder vibration assay significantly enhances BCa detection and the prediction of tumor recurrence. This method is simple, quick, and cost‐effective, making it a promising approach worthy of widespread clinical application.
