PROGNOSIS<br />
Long-term prognosis is poor due to the invasiveness of the tumors and<br />
the advanced stage at the time of diagnosis. Benign tumors that are resectable<br />
carry a good prognosis and may be cured with resection. Survival may<br />
be prolonged with chemotherapy and control of secondary complications<br />
such as inflammation, urinary tract infections, urolithiasis, and urine outflow<br />
obstruction.<br />
