Figure 2. Kaplan–Meier overall survival curve for all patients with urothelial muscle-invasive bladder cancer (cT2-T4aN0M0) undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical cystectomy between 2008 and 2014 at four Swedish cystectomy centers (n = 120). The cohort was divided into two groups depending on if the patients received blood transfusions during NAC, or not (blood yes and blood no).
