Researchers from The Chinese University of Hong Kong carried out two systematic reviews of 10 randomized clinical trials (RCTs), which compared the effectiveness of en bloc resection of bladder tumour (ERBT) as an oncologically noninferior alternative to transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT). In-depth RCT meta-analyses were followed by a two-round Delphi survey of >100 respondents with ERBT experience and a 16-member expert panel meeting, which culminated in the publication of a consensus statement addressing every aspect of ERBT.
