The present study covers 1213 patients with urothelial tumours, of whom 113 have been affected by multi-organ malignancies. The disease was found to spread mostly in direction of the urine flow. Bladder was the most frequently affected organ. The incidence of pelvic cancer in China is higher than in Western countries.
