Abstract Background Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have long been considered a reflection
of tumor aggressiveness. Hematogenous spreading of CTCs from a primary tumor is a …

CONTEXT: Follow-up of patients treated for bladder cancer (BCa) is of great importance for
both non–muscle-invasive BCa (NMIBC) and muscle-invasive BCa (MIBC) because of the …

OBJECTIVE: Patients with persistent/recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer/primary peritoneal
cancer (EOC/PPC) have limited treatment options. AKT and PI3K pathway activation is …

What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Circulating tumour cells (CTC)
have prognostic relevance for patients with different metastatic carcinomas. Detection of …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have become a blistering topic of discussion for oncologists
because of their tremendous potential in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Over the …

Background The diagnostic value and prognostic significance of circulating tumor cell (CTC)
detection in patients with bladder cancer is controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to …

Context Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is considered the standard treatment for muscle-
invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). However, its overall survival benefit is limited and toxicity is …

The purpose of this review is to present the current status of lymph node dissection (LND)
during radical cystectomy in patients with bladder cancer (BCa). Despite the growing body of …

PURPOSE: Circulating tumor cells are malignant cells in peripheral blood that originate from
primary tumors or metastatic sites. The heterogeneous natural history and propensity for …

Raman spectroscopy is an optical technique that can potentially serve as a molecular
diagnosis method. This approach is excellent in many aspects for diagnosing bladder …
