Zamboni S, et al. - Data of 727 patients treated with radical cystectomy (RC) and bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection at three tertiary referral centers were assessed to examine the impact of complete transurethral resection of bladder tumors (c-TURBT) on oncological outcomes following RC and its association with adverse pathological characteristics. They noted that 60% of cases had a c-TURBT. At RC, they observed a low rate of pT0 stage achievement. They reported no significant relationship between c-TURBT, lymph node invasion and soft tissue surgical margin. They found no impact of c-TURBT on survival outcomes, but an incomplete TURBT prior to RC served as a predictor of pT3–T4 stages.
