INTRODUCTION   The registry has now reached its 12 th year of data collection. The last year has seen significant changes with the introduction of the new web based database. While the original database has served BAUS and the section well, our hope is that Nuvola will improve access and capture rates as well as simplify data returns demanded for revalidation and licensing.   The format of the annual report has been changed slightly to reflect the maturity and size of the database, which now holds data on over 270 000 new cancers. This year we have attempted to look at trends over the last decade, using reference years due to the large amount of data. In a number of instances this has revealed evidence of significant stage migration. In line with the theme of this year’s Section meeting, we have also included some analyses of the whole dataset on bladder cancer over the last decade, as well as data on cystectomy over the last 5 years.   Returns from 2008 are marginally up on last year, but unfortunately the quality of the submissions has declined. The reasons for this appear to be data entered by a variety of people apart from consultants or SpR’s, including data managers, CNS’s, MDT co-coordinators to mention a few. In addition the increasing use of in-house systems to populate our datasets has led to some large gaps in completion. The old adage of “rubbish in, rubbish out” applies so please impress upon those in your departments who do data entry the importance of accuracy and completeness.   The most notable trends detected in the latest analysis, shows continuing age and stage migration in prostate cancer, with the median age at diagnosis declining further and more localized disease being detected. Of most interest is the marked stage migration in renal cancer, with T1 tumours increasing significantly and steadily over the past decade, while T2 tumours declined and T3/4 cancers remaining steady. As always this results in many more questions than answers. The initial analysis of 70 000 bladder cancers has given us excellent insight into bladder cancer therapy in the UK. While the BCR holds valuable epidemiological data, meaningful outcome date is lacking.   On behalf of the Section of Oncology, I would like to thank Mr Gregor McIntosh for his hard work over the last five years overseeing the registry. As always a huge thank you goes to Sarah Fowler for all her hard work, particularly in relation to the move from the Access based registry to Nuvola, which has created lots of additional work.   Finally, the Executive committee would like to see regular publications and updates appearing in the peer reviewed literature, to raise the profile and awareness of the BCR, as well as utilize the valuable information it holds. Anyone is free to apply with a simple application form and instructions available on the website.   Greg Boustead October 2009

AUDIT RESULTS SUMMARY January 1 st –31 st December 2008 Who took part?   391 consultant urologists from 107 hospital centres in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland provided data for this study submitting data on 25,839 newly presenting urological tumours from 1st January to 31 st December 2008.  These figures represent approximately 46% of the total UK tumours registered in 2006/2007 (56,096) (the most recent years available). 1.2% (318/25839) are the private patients of 65 consultants.   How were the data analysed?    Information obtained from consultants was entered into the computer database using unique identifying numbers for individual consultants or, if they preferred, a centre number. Twelve centres returned data under a centre number only (29 consultants in total).   Data could be returned either in electronic format using either an Access (Microsoft) database, the new web-based database launched in June 2009 or “in-house” database (23,767 – 92% of returns) designed for the purpose or by  completion of a pro forma for each patient (8% of returns). The pro formas were entered directly into an Access database, at which time validation comprising mainly of checks for duplicate entries and on dates and sex of patient could be carried out. 103 tumours were registered twice as a tertiary referral from another centre or another consultant in the same centre. They were only included once in all the analyses using the data from the primary site for all analyses except those relating to staging and treatment when the tertiary site data was used. In addition 28 benign tumours were registered but these have been excluded from all analyses.   The data presented here are a summary of the data received up to 4 th September 2009 and relate to diagnoses made during the whole of 2008. The following data was included (this includes the total returns):   a. Patients for who the date of diagnosis fell within the time period. (01/01/2008 to 31/12/2008). 25,215 registrations (97.1%). b. diagnosis was either not included or the patient was a tertiary referral, but thePatients for whom the date of referral date fell within the study period. (01/01/2008 to 31/12/2008) 685 registrations (2.6%). c. Patients for whom the diagnosis and referral dates were either not included or the patient was a tertiary referral, but the date of first consultation fell within the study period. (01/01/2008 to 31/12/2008). 58 (0.2%).   For the ranked charts (1, 2 & 4) the individual consultant or centre identification numbers were removed and replaced with rank numbers starting at 1. A unique, confidential "Ranking Sheet" was prepared for each surgeon to enable them to identify their rank in every chart. For those charts where overall figures for the entire database are shown the ranking sheet displays the consultant’s individual figures. No one else can identify the results of an individual consultant. The ranked comprise single bars, with in addition the 25, 50, and 75 percentiles and are ranked from left to right in the ascending order of the data item being measured. Where percentages are included figures have been rounded up to one decimal point. Unless otherwise stated all analyses represent the 2008 dataset.   A personal ranking sheet for each consultant registering three or more tumours was issued individually to go with this chartbook.   Sarah Fowler October 2009 BAUS Cancer Registry (BCR) Manager

A.    Participants and Overall Figures       The number of centres using their own in-house systems to return data has increased yet again but unfortunately the completeness of data returned by many of these systems remains less so than when returned using the specially designed Microsoft Access database making validation and analyses more complicated. It is to be hoped that many these problems will be resolved as the switch to the new web- based database becomes mandatory from January 2010.   As in previous years we have incorporated comparison with National Cancer Statistics from 2006/2007 – the latest years available. Comparison with the national data does suggest that our data are representative of the UK as a whole. However when comparing our data with that of the national data we should bear in mind the following:   • Our data are only being collected by urologists. We have no way of estimating the number of urological cancers that are not being seen or diagnosed by urologists. In the case of kidney cancer, it seems that a substantial number are never seen by a urological surgeon. •These data are being presented within ten months of the completion of the year of data collection and   being compared to projected national figures from 2006/2007, which are the latest to be published. • majority of participants, there is no specific funding for data collection and the analysis andFor the presentation is entirely funded by the Section of Oncology.
