TL;DR: Electron microscopy of the original tumor tissue and of the tissue culture cell line show a remarkable similarity in cell organelle structure.

TL;DR: These findings support a protective role for the GSTM1 gene in bladder cancer and suggest that 25% of all bladder cancer may be attributable to the at-risk GSTM 1 0/0 genotype.

TL;DR: Patients with incomplete resection of localized renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus do not survive any longer than those with extensive cancer, positive lymph nodes or distant metastases, however, when partial venacavectomy establishes negative surgical margins then survival markedly improves.

TL;DR: With time to first evidence of treatment failure used as the end point for determination of treatment efficacy, radical prostatectomy was shown to be more effective than megavoltage radiation in establishing disease control.

TL;DR: Two courses of cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy will almost always prevent relapse in pathological Stage II testicular cancer treated with orchiectomy and retroperitoneal-lymph-node dissection, however, when surgery, follow-up, and chemotherapy are optimal, observation with chemotherapy only for relapse will lead to equivalent cure rates.
