title: Bladder cancer in 2015: Improving indication, technique and outcome of radical cystectomy.
abstract: Radical cystectomy is the standard treatment for patients with bladder cancer, but the prognosis of patients undergoing this procedure has not changed for decades. Small steps towards improvement include better selection of high-risk T1 patients, the use of perioperative chemotherapy and, maybe, robotic cystectomy.
