FIG. 40:  A recent study from Columbia University, New York,[24] analyzed 489 cases of  sarcomatoid bladder cancer from the National Cancer Database, and in these cases with sarcomatoid bladder cancer, the outcome is best in cases with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical cystectomy (Figure), but overall probability of survival is still only about 50% after 3 years.
