summary

Radiotherapy was applied in 46 patients with squamous carcinoma of the urinary bladder. Seven patients i. e. 15.2% of them had 5 years survival. In the group of 24 patients receiving radical radiotherapy 5 year survival was obtained in 20.8 per cent as compared to 9.1 per cent of five year survivals in the group of 22 patients receiving palliative irradiation.
Subjective improvement was obtained in half of the number of patients treated palliatively.
