Are patients with MIBC and bladder neck involvement good candidates for bladder preservation with chemoradiation after maximal, but not complete, TURBT?

Both BCON and BC2001 suggest that a complete TURBT may not be essential for bladder preservation. Incomplete TURBT is a surrogate for a higher stage and predicts poorer outcomes irrespective of the modality used for treatment.
