Bladder Cancer

Overview

What is the Bladder Cancer?

Bladder cancer develops when cells in the bladder begin to divide uncontrollably. These cancer cells grow into a tumour, which may spread to other parts of the body over time. Bladder cancer is more likely to strike men than it is to strike women. Bladder cancer is one of the diseases that can be detected early since it causes blood in the urine as well as other urinary issues that require quick medical attention. 

Epidemiology

Smoking is the leading cause of bladder cancer, with research indicating that smokers are two to three times more likely to get the disease than non-smokers.

Treatment

Bladder cancer can be treated in many ways. However, treatment decisions are made depending on a number of parameters, including the stage, grade and exact location of the tumour along with the overall health condition of the patient.

Surgery

urgery removes the tumour along with a small portion of the healthy tissues surrounding it, called the margin. There are several surgical approaches that specialists use to manage bladder cancer

  • Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumour (TURBT)
  • Cystectomy
Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy employs potent drugs to kill cancer cells. Bladder cancer is treated with a combination of two or more chemo drugs. Chemotherapy can be given intravenously to eliminate any leftover cancer cells, or directly into the bladder to treat superficial bladder cancer, which arises from the lining of the bladder.

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy kills cancer cells by using intense energy beams, such as X-rays and protons. For better results, radiation therapy is used in conjunction with chemotherapy or surgery.
