Consistency of TERT/PLEKHS1/GPR126 mutations between tumor tissues and urine samples from patients with UTUC and UBC as determined using Sanger sequencing
| Urine samples | Tissue samples | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MT (n) | WT (n) | Sensitivity (%) | Specificity (%) | Accuracy (%) | |
| MT (n) | 36 | 3 | 61% | 90% | 70.7% |
| WT (n) | 23 | 27 | |||
| Total | 59 | 30 | |||
MT: Mutant; WT: Wild type; UBC: Urothelial bladder carcinoma; UTUC: Upper track urothelial carcinoma.
