Résumé

CONTEXT: The clinical benefit of photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) with 5-aminolevulinic acid or hexaminolevulinate in addition to white-light cystoscopy (WLC) in bladder cancer has been discussed controversially. OBJECTIVE: To assess in a systematic review the effect of PDD in addition to WLC on (1) the diagnosis and (2) the therapeutic outcome of primary or recurrent non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer investigated by cystoscopy or transurethral resection. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: An electronic database search of Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and CancerLit was undertaken, plus hand searching of relevant congress abstracts and urologic journals. Trials were included if they prospectively compared WLC with PDD in bladder cancer. The review process followed the guidelines of the Cochrane Collaboration. Two reviewers evaluated independently both trial eligibility and methodological quality and data extraction. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: The primary end point of diagnostic accuracy was additional detection rate. The primary end points of therapeutic outcome were residual tumour at second resection and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Seventeen trials were identified. Twelve diagnostic trials used WLC and PDD with the same patients. Seven reported results for the subgroup of patients with carcinoma in situ (CIS). Five randomised trials studied therapeutic outcome. The results were combined in random effects meta-analyses if end points, designs, and populations were comparable. Twenty percent (95% confidence interval [CI], 8-35) more tumour-positive patients were detected with PDD in all patients with non-muscle-invasive tumours and 39% (CI, 23-57) more when only CIS was analysed. Heterogeneity was present among diagnostic studies even when the subgroup of patients with CIS was investigated. Residual tumour was significantly less often found after PDD (odds ratio: 0.28; 95% CI, 0.15-0.52; p
