A recent study reveals comparable outcomes for radical cystectomy and bladder-sparing therapy in treating recurrent ...

"The main strength of this study is the use of a nationwide population-based cohort encompassing nearly all patients with bladder cancer undergoing RC over 8 years, with detailed clinicopathological, ...

PURPOSE: To evaluate our long-term experience with patients treated uniformly with radical cystectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection for invasive bladder cancer and to describe the association of ...

Partial cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer offers metastasis- and cancer-free survival comparable to that of radical cystectomy, but with less perioperative morbidity. Partial and radical ...
