Recording: Do we need TURBT in MIBC? - Part 2

This recording is the next edition from the successful series “Everything you always wanted to know about TURBT but were afraid to ask”.

In this part 2 recording on the role of TURBT in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), two key opinion leaders will debate opposing views on the relevance of the procedure in the context of MIBC. Recent advancements in staging tools, such as MRI, are challenging the need for a thorough TURBT, with some experts proposing to replace it with a sample biopsy. Will the role of TURBT survive these changes?
