There is now randomized data demonstrating en bloc bladder tumor resection reduces recurrence rates when used for primary resection. Here is my last en bloc case, uncut ~3.5 minutes start to finish (in 2x speed). The new standard of care? I think so! @CedarsSinai #Bladdercancer

CancerBetter (my YouTube channel) just surpassed 10k subscribers. I go over medical studies in a understandable way to help people with cancer find the best care possible. The reality is all health care is not equal and with education people can optimize their care!

Focal Therapy can be a great option for the treatment of prostate cancer. In this video we discuss how it's great and also how it can fail.

I'm loving laser en bloc TURBT, Here's a video from a recent case I did with a big tumor. Pros: Less blood loss, information about margin status, lower perforation risk, no obturator reflex, accurate staging. @CancerBetter, @chadritchmd, @dipenjparekh
