ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Several molecular classification systems for bladder cancer have been proposed, but due to differences on how to define molecular subtypes, controversies and misunderstandings have arisen.OBJECTIVE:
To discuss different aspects of the molecular classification of bladder cancer and to point to the consequences of using different conceptual approaches. To question some underlying assumptions when defining molecular subtypes.METHODS:
To critically reflect on some of the principles and methods used when defining molecular subtypes.RESULTS:
Depending on underlying assumptions and aims for the definitions of subtypes, different types of molecular subtypes will be arrived at.CONCLUSION:
The underlying assumptions and their consequences must be better clarified when defining molecular subtypes.
