    Bladder cancer is the ninth most common cancer globally, with higher incidence rates in developed countries due to lifestyle and environmental factors.

  • 2

    Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is primarily diagnosed through cystoscopy and urine cytology, with imaging methods aiding in evaluation.

  • 3

    Therapeutic strategies for NMIBC include transurethral resection and adjuvant treatments like BCG, while muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) requires more aggressive interventions.

  • 4

    NMIBC has a high recurrence rate of 50-70% and progression rate of 10-30%, highlighting the need for effective monitoring and treatment strategies.

  • 5

    Genomic and transcriptomic profiling of bladder cancer reveals distinct genetic alterations that may enhance early detection and personalized treatment approaches.
