Abstract

Conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumor (cTURBT) is the standard approach to the diagnosis and treatment of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer. However, it suffers from inherent limitations such as insufficient assessment of resection depth and the need for intravesical tumor fragmentation that hampers histopathological evaluation. We summarize recent clinical data on en bloc resection of bladder tumor (ERBT), a method that promises to overcome these limitations.
