Therapy of invasive bladder cancer.
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.
