The most important step at the beginning of almost every #BladderCancer patient's pathway. Regardless of technique, it is vital to deliver the #TURBT as a package. @UroDocAsh #IBCG26 #EAU26 #BAUS26 #UroSoMe

As we wrap a whirlwind of data in bladder cancer at #GU26, wishing everyone safe travels home. Rest up - London and #EAU26 are just around the corner! I'm especially excited to once again lead the "Common Problems and Controversies in Bladder Cancer: Rapid-fire Debates." Friday 13 March 10:45 - 12:15 We’ve designed this session to cut through the noise - no long lectures - just leading experts, opposing viewpoints, and the direct clinical insights you need for daily practice. It remains one of the most anticipated highlights of the meeting for a reason!

As in prior years, we will again run a series of live polls tied to the Rapid Fire Debate session at #EAU26. There are no right answers; only your honest perspective. Your vote and comments will help drive the discussion, during the new “Presidential Debate” format introduced by @MaartenAlbersen #UroTwitter #BladderCancer #EAU26 #GU26

It’s disappointing to me that TURBT continues to be dismissed as a “low-priority” procedure in so many training programs. This single step defines the entire course for a bladder cancer patient. Accurate diagnosis, precise staging, and the choice of therapy all hinge on a high quality TURBT. And the “advanced genomic analysis and molecular profiling” these same programs love to promote? It all begins with adequate, high-quality tissue obtained through a TURBT. Yet incomplete resections leave behind residual tumor in up to 78% of cases at restaging, leading to higher recurrence rates and unnecessary progression. If we are serious about improving outcomes in NMIBC - and even MIBC - we must treat TURBT with the respect it deserves: structured, deliberate training curricula, hands-on attending involvement, and real performance metrics. This is why the @IBCG_BladderCA will make this one of the focus topics of our retreat this year, #IBCG26 @UrogerliMD @JoshMeeks @bbmdmsk @siadaneshmand @RobertoContieri @paolo_gontero @ParamMariappan @joanfundi @jteoh_hk @spsutkaMD @WorldBladderCan @BladderCancerUS @drgaganprakash @SUO_YUO @veerukasi

Important randomized data (JCOG1019) suggesting that in carefully selected HG T1 patients with a negative re-TUR, active surveillance may achieve comparable oncologic outcomes to BCG, with less toxicity. Encouraging signal - especially in the era of BCG constraints That said, selection is everything. This is not a broad replacement for BCG, but a potential option for a very defined, well-counseled group under close follow-up. As always in #BladderCancer cancer: biology, quality of resection, and vigilance matter. @IBCG_BladderCA @UrogerliMD @MaxKates @tompowles1 @MRoupret @JoshMeeks @joanfundi @AndreaNecchi

📢 New publication in European Urology We are pleased to highlight a new study published in European Urology, titled "Active Surveillance Versus Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin for High-grade T1 Bladder Cancer with Negative Second Transurethral Resection: The Randomized Noninferiority Phase 3 JCOG1019 Trial". 👏 Congratulations to Hiroshi Kitamura et al. on this excellent contribution, together with all co-authors. 🔗 Read the full article here: 👉 lnkd.in/ePEvrQDY #EuropeanUrology #Urology #UroOncology #Research #MedicalResearch #AcademicUrology

Very important study. Most NMIBCrelated costs are driven by overtreatment and oversurveillance in LR disease. Kudos to @ParamMariappan for this key step toward deintensifying FU in LR NMIBC. Together with treatment deintensification, it can rationalize costs and improve pts QoL

20 years ago we suggested ceasing surveillance in G1Ta #BladderCancer after 5 recurrence-free years: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15758711/ From our recent work, further de-intensifiction of surveillance in low risk patients is feasible. authors.elsevier.com/a/1mHug9Cfw03S…
