Continent urinary diversions and nerve-sparing procedures are being performed routinely and Dr. Pohar believes the key to improving the understanding and treatment of bladder cancer is by creating partnerships with patients based on clear communication, empathy and trust. By partnering with patients, research studies are being initiated in the Department of Urology to evaluate the impact of lymphadenectomy on oncologic outcomes, studying the use of an intraoperative gamma probe in detecting known and occult cancer and exploring ultra-high field MRI for bladder cancer staging. The partnership has grown and allowed for the establishment of a bladder cancer tissue bank to support the conduct of mechanistic and translational studies in bladder cancer. Dr. Pohar is actively involved in laboratory research focused on predicting the degree and mechanism of contribution of specific oncogenic pathways in a given bladder tumor to facilitate the delivery of a more personalized health care.
