“…Conversely, T3‐4 stage and node‐positive disease achieved independent predictor status of higher RC with chemotherapy rates. Some findings are consistent with previous reports that focused on patients with nonmetastatic muscle‐invasive UCUB, where older age, African American race and unmarried status were associated with lower RC use . However, other findings are inconsistent with previous reports on nonmetastatic patients, where higher tumor stage represented an independent predictor of lower RC use …”

“…Importantly, approximately half of patients in the U.S. (3,15) with non-metastatic MIBC do not receive any treatment with curative intent. In a systematic review by Williams and colleagues [2019], RC was used as a mode of therapy in 6% of patients across all age groups and 19-21% among patients who were 66 years old or younger (5). An important initiative moving forward will be increase the number of patients receiving treatment with curative intent, whether it be TMT or RC (15).…”

“…Radical cystectomy (RC) plays a central role in the treatment of UCB (3). It is a mainstay in the management of MIBC, together with peri-operative chemotherapy and appropriate lymphadenectomy, but is also important for the treatment of very high risk and treatment-refractory NMIBC (5)(6)(7). RC is one of the most challenging surgical techniques in Urology.…”

“…In addition to a delay between the first symptoms and a BC diagnosis, there are several mechanisms by which radical definitive treatment may be delayed for BC patients (9). Patients may not be fit enough for immediate surgery and so require treatment of comorbidities, or may be referred from primary care physicians or urology units to different hospitals for surgery (10).…”
