Abstract

Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine the impact of multidisciplinary team meetings on the management decisions for urological cancers. A pro- spective study was conducted.

Methods: The study popu- lation is cases presented to multidisciplinary teams at Notre- Dame de Secours University Medical Center between July 2012 and July 2014. Data was collected by a standard pro forma.

Results: 189 cases were presented in multidisci- plinary meetings during the study period. Results of this study showed that multidisciplinary team meetings change management decisions in 40.7% of cases. Change in man- agement decisions was mainly significant in testicular can- cer (57.1%), prostate cancer (42.7%) and bladder cancer (38.2%), with less important changes in renal cancer (33.3%). Prostate cancer cases with Gleason score 7 (51.7%) and bladder tumors with TNM ;t T2 (85.7%) were the most mod- ified in their respective groups.

Conclusion: Multidiscipli- nary team meetings have a major impact in therapeutic de- cisions taken by urologists for newly diagnosed urological cancers.

泌尿肿瘤学多学科小组会议的评价。

目的:本研究的目的是检查多学科小组会议对泌尿系统癌症管理决策的影响。进行了一项前瞻性研究。方法:研究人群为2012年7月至2014年7月期间在巴黎圣母院大学医学中心多学科团队提交的病例。数据以标准形式收集。结果:189例病例在研究期间的多学科会议上发表。本研究结果显示，在40.7%的案例中，多学科团队会议改变了管理决策。前列腺癌(42.7%)、膀胱癌(38.2%)和睾丸癌(57.1%)对治疗决策的改变最为显著，肾癌(33.3%)的改变不太重要。Gleason评分为7分的前列腺癌(51.7%)和伴有TNM;t T2的膀胱肿瘤(85.7%)在各自组中最常见。结论:多学科小组会议对泌尿科医师对新诊断的泌尿系统肿瘤的治疗决策有重要影响。
