Abstract
The treatment decision in patients with simultaneous development of bladder cancer and prostate cancer is based on the prognostic factors of the two tumours, the life expectancy, and the complications of treatment influencing patient follow-up. This review of the literature tends to confirm a higher incidence of prostate cancer in patients with bladder cancer. The diagnostic and treatment options are proposed for each situation, but evidence-based recommendations cannot be proposed on the basis of the published data.Entities:
