Abstract
Although the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is usually managed in a bladder-preserving manner, sometimes the performance of radical cystectomy cannot be avoided. Delayed cystectomy is related to worse oncological outcome; thus, early cystectomy (after bacillus Calmette-Guérin [BCG] failure) or immediate cystectomy (immediately after the diagnosis of NMIBC) is recommended. The 5-year disease-free survival after radical cystectomy in NMIBC patients is up to 80%. However, careful consideration of the risks and benefits of radical cystectomy is essential, because of the potential risk of complications and negative effects on the patient’s quality of life.
