Abstract:
The bladder cancer is a common malignant tumor in urinary system.The standard treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer is radical cystectomy.Considering the damage to patients and the drastic effect on their life caused by the radical cystectomy,many domestic and overseas scholars suggest a comprehensive treatment based on a bladder-keeping surgery with adjuvant therapy including radiotherapy,chemotherapy and frequent follow-up,which showslow operation-related risk and complication rate compared with the radical cystectomy.As a result,patients are able to preserve the function of bladder.
