Radical cystectomy vs bladder-sparing: QOL better (!) and less anxiety in radical cystectomy in the large prospective observational CISTO study. Surprising results and food for thought! Congrats Angie Smith and team on an impressive effort. Amer. Urol. Assn.


Our patients have spoken! #AUA25 At 12 mos, patients who underwent cystectomy reported better overall well-being – mental, emotional, and financial! Physical function was comparable between bladder-sparing therapy and radical cystectomy. @BladdCancerUS Angie Smith

Bladder-sparing or cystectomy after recurrent HR-NMIBC? #CISTO at #AUA25 •BST wins for bowel, sexual health •RC wins for mental health, financial well-being & RFS •No major survival difference Tough choices but ‼️RC is not inferior QOL .. congrats Angie Smith & John Gore


Thank you to the patients, advocates, collaborators, &@PCORI for supporting CISTOStudy! 🙏John & I are eager to hear your thoughts for dissemination 📢. What reflections do you have for future directions? We want to hear from you!💬redcap.iths.org/surveys/?s=RR4… Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network #AUA25
