A multiregional study of presentation and outcomes in upper tract urothelial cancer: Data from East Asia and Europe
This international observational study revealed variations in the epidemiological distributions and practice patterns among UTUC patients in China, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and Germany. Cohorts from China comprised patients from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Taiwan region, respectively. However, ethnic and regional differences did not affect OS and CSS after radical nephroureterectomy.
