The year the Covid-19 pandemic appeared has been quite prolific in urological cancer research, and the collection of articles, perspectives, and reviews on renal, prostate, and urinary tract tumors merged in this Urological Cancer 2020 issue is just a representative sample of this assertion. Urological malignancies nowadays remain a hot topic of translational oncologic research. These are quite common neoplasms in clinical practice, with a high impact on the economy. All of them rank in the top-ten list of human cancers and account for up to 33% of malignancies affecting the male population [1]. In addition, kidney, prostate, and bladder tumors display different pathogenetic mechanisms, and their varied diagnostic and therapeutic approaches represent a challenge for multidisciplinary clinical teams.
