Summary of VEGF and angiogenesis in
bladder cancer

The importance of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiogenesis in bladder cancer development is supported by a considerable, increasing base of clinical study. These studies have found that high VEGF expression is associated with progression in bladder cancer and can be useful as a prognostic marker. They have also ascertained that high levels of VEGF expression indicate poor prognosis, as they correspond with decreased relapse-free and disease-free survival.1-3

High levels of VEGF expression have also been shown to positively correlate with high microvessel density, a concurrent predictor of occurrence and progression of bladder cancer.4,5
