TUR-B ier

Thank youfor the context David. "Hier" was also my guess (please see my discussion entry "@ Renee" below).

I was indeed concerned about the meaning of "ier". I do not see it elsewhere, but TUR-B shows up further context in the document. I think perhaps it is a typo for "hier":

Z. n. TUR-8 und Mitomycin-C-Fruhinstillation (hier Nachweis eines multilokulären Urothelkarzinoms der Harnblase pTa high grade G3).

since I've seen so many wrong interpretations...

The use as an adjective does not make grammatical sense to me as a native German speaker. Perhaps the asker could provide us with a bit more context please. Looking once more at what we have got, the "ier" could also be a typo for "hier". In this case this sentence would read "Z.n. iatrogener Blasenperforation bei initialer TUR-B, hier Nachweis eines pTa,G2 Urothelkarzinoms der Harnblase". Again, this is a guess

To me it simply seemed as though the noun TUR-B was used as an adjective!

It is clear that TUR-B/TURB is transurethral resection of the bladder. However it is not clear what "ier" stands for. This has not been addressed and was part of the question. Could it perhaps stand for "initial elektrisch reseziert"? However, this is only a guess. Has somebody a better idea?
