Background: Trimodality therapy (TMT) combines transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT), radiotherapy (RT), and chemotherapy. European Association of Urology guidelines contain a "strong" recommendation that TMT can "be offered as an alternative to select patients, for whom radical cystectomy (RC) is not an option". Five-year survival ranges 36–74%, with salvage cystectomy rates 10–30%.
