Abstract excerpt

Urinary bladder cancer (UBC) is a common cancer with male predominance. Pathologically it is classified into two distinct tumor entities related to the risk of patients. The low-grade tumors with relatively well-differentiated tumor histology (G1 and G2) at stage Ta are non-invasive and pose a minimal risk, whereas high-grade tumors (G2 and G3) with stages T1 to T4 are aggressive with invasion, and therefore,...
