==Staging==
The following stages are used to classify the location, size, and spread of the cancer, according to the TNM (tumor, lymph node, and metastasis) staging system:
*'''Stage 0''': Cancer cells are found only on the inner lining of the bladder.
*'''Stage I''': Cancer cells have proliferated to the layer beyond the inner lining of the urinary bladder but not to the muscles of the urinary bladder.
*'''Stage II''': Cancer cells have proliferated to the muscles in the bladder wall but not to the fatty tissue that surrounds the urinary bladder.
*'''Stage III''': Cancer cells have proliferated to the fatty tissue surrounding the urinary bladder and to the prostate gland, vagina, or uterus, but not to the lymph nodes or other organs.
*'''Stage IV''': Cancer cells have proliferated to the lymph nodes, pelvic or abdominal wall, and/or other organs.
*'''Recurrent''': Cancer has recurred in the urinary bladder or in another nearby organ after having been treated.<ref>{{cite news |first= | last= | coauthors= | title=The Gale Encyclopedia of Cancer: A guide to Cancer and its Treatments, Second Edition.  Page no. 137 }}</ref>
