RESUMO
Clinical guidelines from the European Association of Urology, American Urological Association, Society of Urologic Oncology, and National Comprehensive Cancer Network are some of the most frequently accessed publications. These guidelines are published at varying frequency and use different methods to formulate their recommendations. Many guidelines still rely on expert opinion in areas where there is a lack of data. To be well executed guidelines they need to involve comprehensive panels who are content experts and multispecialty. This article reviews the strengths and weaknesses of current guidelines for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and possible opportunities for future improvements. PATIENT SUMMARY: Quality recommendations in guidelines are critical to provide the most effective care for patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
