Abstract:
The COVID-19 outbreak has led to the deferral of a great number of surgeries in an attempt to reduce transmission of infection, free up hospital beds, intensive care and anaesthetists, and limit aerosol-generating procedures.

We aim to summarise updates on diagnosis, treatment and follow up of bladder cancer during the COVID-19 outbreaks.
