Impact of Age at Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer on Survival: A Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Based Study 2004-2015

Abstract

Age at diagnosis of bladder cancer was found to be a significant predictor for the worse overall survival and bladder cancer-specific survival even in an era with more effective therapies. Exploring the reasons why older age contributes to poor outcomes for bladder cancer will be the focus of future research.
