The Best of EAU15: Urothelial Cancers
The Best of EAU15 continues to bring you highlights from our Annual Congress. This week, we present the best that EAU15 has to offer on urothelial cancers, as selected by experts in the field. Please enjoy this selection of free previews from the EAU15 Resource Centre!
 
 
Point-counterpoint: BCG alone - still the gold standard?
 
 
Yes: Amongst other points, Prof. Maximilian Burger points out that in non-muscle invasive high-risk bladder cancer BCG remains the sole form of treatment other than early cystectomy with solid evidence.
 
 
No: Dr. Kay Thomas contends that, while BCG is a great success story for urology, BCG alone is inadequate.

Dr. Seth Lerner shares the latest data from the TCGA project, reviews key translatable findings and asks if urology is ready for personalized genomic therapy.
