Surgeon has a major impact on long-term recurrence risk in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer

A surgeon has a significant impact on the risk of recurrence after curative treatment of patients with NMIBC. This effect was observed despite the relatively extensive experience in bladder endoscopic surgery of all of the surgeons and practicing in a setting of one specialized center. These findings should be taken into account while performing and evaluating the results of comparative studies.
