Bladder Cancer Incidence Trends in the United States From 2000 to 2020

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Bladder cancer is one of the most common urogenital cancers globally. Here, we aimed to report the incidence trend of bladder cancer in the United States (US) over 2000–2020, by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and types using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER). Methods We used SEER 22 data to calculate the age‐standardized
