Groups/Cohorts
1

Bladder Cancer Group:

Patients scheduled to have a cystectomy or cystoscopy of their bladder with possible removal or biopsy of bladder tumor or tissue.

Two urine samples collected at the time of the scheduled procedure:

One sample collected through voiding. The other sample collected from atheterized urine in the operating room. Additional urine samples may be collected at each follow up visit over two years. These samples will be obtained via voiding, standard urine sample collection.

2
Control Group: Patients with no known evidence of bladder cancer. One urine sample will be collected through voiding, as with standard urine sample collection at the time of clinic visit.
