Molecular Subtypes of Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer
FIG. 22: As described in Figure 14, Choi and others at MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, Texas, USA) have developed a classification of tumors based on molecular staging using the terms “basal muscle-invasive bladder cancer” versus “luminal muscle invasive bladder cancer," with a subgroup of p53-like tumors in between.[5,18]
