Lymph node metastases in non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer are correlated with the number of transurethral resections and tumour upstaging at radical cystectomy

Abstract

Inappropriate delay and inadequate staging of high-grade non-muscle invasive TCC of the bladder are to be avoided. The present multivariate analysis showed that the number of TURBTs and tumour upstaging in the cystectomy specimen correlated with an increased prevalence of LNMs.
