Methods A total of 60 cases of invasive bladder cancer have been confirmed on open surgery and pathological studies were retrospective studied.The cases were allotted to preoperative transarterial chemotherapy group (30 cases) and operation alone group (30 cases).Preoperative transarterial chemotherapy was performed by infusing anticancer drugs into internal iliac artery.Surgery was performed in 1～2 weeks after transarterial chemotherapy.The bladder preservation rate,recurrence rate,metastasis rate and survival rate were compared between the 2 groups. Results In the preoperative transarterial chemotherapy group,the bladder preservation rate was improved and the recurrence rate dropped (P0.05). Conclusions Preoperative transarterial chemotherapy is a safe and effective method in the treatment of invasive bladder cancer.
