Özet

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine genetic expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) in fresh bladder tumor specimens and evaluate their relationship with tumor histopathological features and their prognostic value in recurrence and progression in patients with bladder cancer.
