Bladder transitional cell carcinoma anatomic primary site as a predictor of survival and mortality: a population-based retrospective cohort study

The primary site of bladder cancer is a significant predictor of survival outcomes, with tumors in the urachus and anterior wall associated with a poorer prognosis. These findings underscore the importance of considering tumor location in the prognosis and management of bladder cancer. Future studies should aim to validate these findings in more diverse populations and explore the underlying biological mechanisms that drive these differences.
