Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Bladder cancer is the second most prevalent urological cancer in France. About 1 in 5 new cases of bladder cancer infiltrate the muscles. The standard treatment is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy associated with reconstruction of the urinary tract. The short-term effects on well-being and quality of life are well known. The long-term effects are, on the other hand, poorly understood, particularly sexual function. This study aim to asses the quality of sexual life in patients with cystectomy for bladder cancer. This will be done via various questionnaires given before and after surgery.
