title: Therapy of invasive bladder cancer.
abstract: Effective treatment of invasive bladder cancer depends upon an understanding of the natural history of this disease and careful clinical staging. Radical cystectomy offers acceptable long-term survival for most individuals with organ-confined disease, but those with more advanced tumors or those associated with adverse features may benefit from the addition of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
