Objective To evaluate the impact of sub-stage on the clinical prognosis of T 1 G3 and evaluate the feasibility of the T1me system in pT1G3 sub-staging.Methods The clinical data,pathological specimen and follow-up data were collected from 56 patients out of 87 patients diagnosed with initial high-grade T1 bladder urothelial carcinoma .The patients were divided into Group A [ T1-microinvasive (T1m),17 cases] and group B [T1-extensive-invasive (T1e),39 cases] according to pathological evaluation after transurethral resection.Clinical parameters were analyzed with Chi-square test,and recurrence-free and progression free survival were obtained by Kaplan-Meier analysis and Log-rank test.Results Age,tumor size,number and intravesical instilled medication showed no significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05 ) .There were significant differences of 5-year recurrence-free rate ( P =0.037 ) and progression-free survival rate ( P =0.045 ) between the 2 groups, and the prognosis of group A was significantly better than that of group B .Conclusion The pathological sub-stage is an important predictor in initial high-grade T1 bladder urothelial carcinoma patients , and the T1me system is objective and feasible.

Objective To understand the application and effect of problem based,case based and evidence based (PCE) combined teaching method in urology surgery clinical teaching.Methods A total of 50 clinical medicine students were selected.PCE combined teaching method was applied in urology surgery clinical teaching and the teaching effect was evaluated.Results The ratios of student who thought PCE combined teaching method could stimulate learning enthusiasm,improve learning efficiency and improve the abilities of logical thinking,inductive analysis,practical application,self-study,literature retrieval,innovation and team cooperation were 96％,94％,95％,94％,100％,88％,100％,96％ and 95％ respectively.All students thought this new teaching method could be extended in other subjects.Conclusions Application of PCE combined teaching method in urology surgery clinical teaching can achieve good teaching effect and it is worth recommending in clinical teaching.
