Brief Summary:

Biological behabiour of low grade bladder cancer tumors is well known. They have a very high rate of recurrences during their follow up but very low (less than 1%) risk of progression.

Until now, the gold standard of any bladder recurrence for this patients is performing an immediate transurethral ressection of the tumor.

This surgery has risk of complications and, due to the low risk of these subgroup of tumors, sometimes it becomes an overtreatment for the patients.

This is the reason why new conservative or less invasive surgeries are proposed to follow up and treat these patients.

Arm Intervention/treatment
No Intervention: Active surveillance
After a recurrence in patient with previous low grade bladder cancer tumor, strict follow up with cystoscopy and cytology, avoiding immediate surgery
Active Comparator: endoscopic fulguration
After a recurrence in patient with previous low grade bladder cancer tumor, fulguration under local anesthesia and sedation will be performed using a flexible cystoscope and a monopolar electrode
Procedure: Endoscopic fulguration
already included. WE will use Storz monopolar device for fulguration
Other Name: Active surveillance




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression rate [ Time Frame: two years ]
    Number of patients that progress during the follow up

  2. Complications rate [ Time Frame: two years ]
    Number and grade of complications in both arms. Clavien Dindo Scale will be used


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. recurrence rate [ Time Frame: two years ]
    number of recurrences

  2. quality of life measured with CAVICAVENMI questionnaire [ Time Frame: two years ]
    quality of life of the patients in both subgroups. CAVICAVENMI questionnaire will be used
