BACKGROUND:: We evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of urinary angiogenin (ANG) and
cytokeratin 20 (CK-20) mRNA in comparison with voided urine cytology in the detection of
bladder cancer patients. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS:: A total of 97 Egyptian patients
provided a single voided urine sample for ANG, CK-20 and cytology before cystoscopy. Of
the 97 cases, 63 were histologically diagnosed as bladder cancer; 33 with transitional cell
carcinoma (TCC) and 30 with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), whereas the remaining 34 ...
