Abstract:Objective:
To assess prognostic differences between primary and progressive muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) following radical cystectomy.
Material and methods:
The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was used to abstract MIBC data following radical cystectomy from 2000-2019. Patients were classified as either ‘Primary’ MIBC (defined as the presentation of muscle-invasive disease at initial diagnosis) or ‘Progressive’ MIBC (… Show more
