  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Management of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

Abstract

Bladder cancer is the second most common malignancy of the urinary tract and the 9th worldwide. Seventy-five percent are non-muscle invasive and 25% are muscle invasive (Islas-García et al. in Actas Urol Esp 40(4):263–267, 2016). This chapter covers systematic review results in En-Bloc resection of bladder cancer.
