Background

This Research Topic seeks to tackle the pressing issue of variability in pathology practices concerning radical cystectomy (RC) specimens. Despite existing international guidelines, inconsistencies persist, particularly in prostate sampling and margin assessment through frozen sections.

This study will delve into the current hot open questions surrounding the development of consensus-driven, standardized protocols for RC specimen handling and evaluation. By analyzing multidisciplinary approaches and precision medicine demands, the research will evaluate the impact of standardized practices on diagnostic accuracy, tumor staging, and therapeutic decision-making in bladder cancer.

The goal is to establish robust evidence supporting uniform protocols that enhance patient outcomes and clinical decision-making.
