Abstract
Urothelial carcinoma in situ (CIS) is clearly related to tumor recurrence and subsequent cancer progression1. CIS detection remains a challenge for urologists since this lesion, which is only a few cell layers in thickness, may be asymptomatic and/or not visible under conventional white light cystoscopy.
