Abstract
This study demonstrates that the survivial of patients with UICC category T3 and T4 bladder cancer is strongly correlated with pre-treatment levels of serum acute phase reactant proteins and albumin. A more accurate assessment of the prognosis is obtained than by considering stage and the type of operation alone.
