Abstract Introduction Although not recommended by EAU guidelines, many men with acute scrotal pain undergo ultrasound (US) to screen for occult tumours. This has low diagnostic yield and must be weighed against the increased risks of coronavirus due...

Journal Article
Unsworth-White, S. R., Kitchen, M. O., & Bryan, R. T. (2022). Immunotherapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: from the origins of BCG to novel therapies. Future Oncology, 18(1), 105-115. https://doi.org/10.2217/fon-2021-0781

Supplies of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), the first-line treatment for most intermediate- and high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancers (NMIBC), have proven unreliable over the past decade. This review considers the evolution of BC... Read More about Immunotherapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: from the origins of BCG to novel therapies.

Background: High-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC) is a clinically unpredictable disease. Despite clinical risk estimation tools, many patients are undertreated with intra-vesical therapies alone, whereas others may be over-treated...
