Notes:
*The most important distinction is between T1 and T2. This is dealt with in the ''[[muscularis propria invasion in the urinary bladder]]'' article.
**T2 is typically managed with a [[radical cystectomy]] or [[radical cystoprostatectomy]].
*Upstaging based on cystectomy/cytoprostatectomy pathology common - range 20-80%.<ref name=pmid22321341>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Turker | first1 = P. | last2 = Bostrom | first2 = PJ. | last3 = Wroclawski | first3 = ML. | last4 = van Rhijn | first4 = B. | last5 = Kortekangas | first5 = H. | last6 = Kuk | first6 = C. | last7 = Mirtti | first7 = T. | last8 = Fleshner | first8 = NE. | last9 = Jewett | first9 = MA. | title = Upstaging of urothelial cancer at the time of radical cystectomy: factors associated with upstaging and its effect on outcome. | journal = BJU Int | volume = 110 | issue = 6 | pages = 804-11 | month = Sep | year = 2012 | doi = 10.1111/j.1464-410X.2012.10939.x | PMID = 22321341 }}</ref>
