Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organoid culture, in particular to a method for culturing organoids of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma. Background technique
[0002] Upper Urinary Tract Urothelial Cell Carcinoma (UTUC) is a rare tumor of the genitourinary system that originates from the urothelial lining of the upper urinary tract. UTUC accounts for 5-10% of all urothelial carcinomas and 10% of renal cancers. Despite the low incidence of UTUC, it is characterized by high mortality and recurrence rates, 60% of cases are aggressive at the time of diagnosis, the 5-year survival rate of patients with pT2 / pT3 invasion of the muscular wall is less than 50%, and pT4 The 5-year survival rate of patients is less than 10%.
[0003] For patients with advanced upper tract urothelial carcinoma, radical nephroureterectomy combined with bladder cuff resection is still the standard treatment for UTUC, systemic chemotherapy and neoa...
