OBJECTIVE: To determine the clinical utility of cystoscopy to rule out @entity150 in @entity5 @entity1 who have had pelvic computed tomographic (CT) scan. METHODS: We reviewed charts of 49 @entity1 at Walter Reed and Tripler Army Medical Centers who had International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage II or greater @entity5 and who underwent both cystoscopy and CT scan before treatment. Data retrieved included diagnosis, race, age, cystoscopy results, and CT scan reports. These @entity1 were evaluated and treated between January 1, 1991, and September 1997. RESULTS: The mean age of the @entity1 was 50 years. Seven of the @entity1 were Asian, five black, six white, one Hispanic, and 30 Pacific Islander. There were 40 @entity957 and nine @entity420 . There were 25 stage II, 20 stage III, three stage IV, and one recurrent @entity5 . Three @entity1 with @entity150 were identified by cystoscopy and all also were identified with possible @entity150 by CT scan. Two additional cases of possible invasion seen on CT scan proved not to be invasion with cystoscopy. The positive predictive valve of CT scan in predicting @entity150 was 60% (three of five). The negative predictive valve of CT scan in predicting @entity150 was 100%. CONCLUSION: The utility of performing cystoscopy to rule out @entity150 in a @entity1 with no evidence of bladder involvement on CT scan is low and might not be necessary.
