Redefining the role of immediate intravesical instillation of mitomycin C in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer

Later, putting forward the hypothesis that the mechanism of recurrence was the implantation of cancer cells after tumour resection, research demonstrated the role of intravesical mitomycin C (MMC) in decreasing the risks of recurrence (2).
