Bladder cancer is the 4th most common cancer in men and the 11th most common in women. The overall incidence in the UK is 11.4 per 100,000 population. At diagnosis, only about 5% of patients have metastatic disease, usually to lymph nodes, lung, liver, bone and central nervous system. Around 30% have involvement of the muscle layer. Around 70% have superficial disease, of which 10% is CIS [1].
