  Bladder cancer is a prevalent malignancy that affects the urinary bladder, and its epidemiology reveals a significant global impact. Based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER), between the years 2016 to 2020, the age adjusted incidence rate of new cases of bladder cancer was 18.2 per 100,000 individuals (both men and women) annually. Similarly, the age adjusted death rate attributed to bladder cancer was reported at 4.2 per 100,000 individuals, in both genders, per year. The lifetime risk of developing bladder cancer was reported to be approximately 2.3 percent of both men and women. As of 2020, the estimated number of individuals living with bladder cancer in the United States was 725,549. Bladder cancer is more commonly diagnosed in males than females, and the risk of developing the disease increases with age, peaking in individuals over 70 years old. W.. View More»
