Age, gender, ECOG performance score, tumor grade, pathological tumor (pT) stage, clinical lymph node (cN) status, localization of the primary tumor in the bladder, presence of comorbid diseases, renal failure status, hydronephrosis, and NAC regimens were analyzed.Results: Of the total 46 patients included in the study, 42 (81.3%) were male and 4 (8.7%) were female. The median age at diagnosis was 61.5 (34-77) years. In the group of patients aged
