Abstract
Bladder cancer, which is a complex disease, can be treated with a variety of stage-oriented treatment options. In this article, the treatment recommendations of the German S3 guideline “Early detection, diagnosis, treatment and aftercare of bladder cancer” are applied in a fictitious case study. In a patient with invasive transitional cell carcinoma, the treatment options—ranging from bladder preservation to radical cystectomy with neoadjuvant chemotherapy—are discussed on the basis of the current literature.
