ABSTRACT

Controversies abound in urologic cancers. While some work in comparative effectiveness research has been performed, most controversies remain unresolved. In this chapter, we examine the three most common urologic malignancies: Prostate cancer, kidney cancer, and bladder cancer. We will review progress made in comparative effectiveness research for each cancer and outline important topics where future research is needed.
