• Reliability and Preliminary Validation of a Body Image Scale Survey for Use in Bladder Cancer Patients

  Ava Saidian, Hannah G Hingtgen ... Amirali Salmasi

  Extirpative bladder surgery for bladder cancer requires urinary diversion which causes cosmetic and functional changes that affect a patient’s body image and quality of life. Current health-related quality of life (HRQOL) surveys validated for use in bladder cancer patients have no dedicated domain evaluating body image. We sought to validate the ten-item Body Image Scale (BIS) for use in bladder ...
