Symptoms of Bladder Cancer
- Blood in the urine (urine looks bright red or rusty).
- Pain or burning when urinating.
- Passing urine often.
- Feeling the need to urinate but no urine comes out.
- Difficulty in passing urine.
Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer
To diagnose bladder cancer, the doctor will take a medical history, do a physical examination and request a urine test. He or she may order an x-ray test and perform a cystoscopy (described below) and if needed, a biopsy for bladder cancer. A urine sample is taken and then examined under a microscope for cancerous cells (for bladder cancer).
An x-ray procedure, called an Intravenous pyelogram (IVP), is used to detect any abnormalities or growths in the bladder. For the IVP x-ray, a special dye containing iodine is given to the patient through a needle inserted in the vein. The dye goes in the bladder, making the bladder easier to see on the x-rays.
A Cystoscopy is a procedure using a thin, lighted tube called a cystoscope that is inserted into the bladder through the urethra. If the doctor sees any abnormal areas or growths, he or she will remove some of that tissue (biopsy) for further examination under a microscope.
Treatment of Bladder Cancer in India
There are four main types of treatment for bladder cancer: surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and biological therapy. The type and staging of the cancer, age, and overall health, determine which treatment method(s) will be used.
Surgery
There are three (3) main types of surgeries for bladder cancer :-
Transurethral resection (TUR) is an operation that uses a cystoscope inserted into the bladder through the urethra. The doctor then uses a tool with a small wire loop on the end to remove the cancer or to burn the tumor away with high-energy electricity.
Cystectomy is an operation to remove the bladder. There are two types of cystectomy – segmental (partial), and radical (complete). Segmental cystectomy is an operation to take out part of the bladder where the cancer is located…
Urinary diversion is an operation to make way for urine to pass out of the body so that it does not go through the bladder.
Radiation therapy in India
Radiation therapy (also called radiotherapy) may be needed when the cancer cannot be removed with TUR because it involves a larger area of the bladder. X-rays destroy the ability of cancer cells to grow and multiply. Internal radiation therapy, with radioactive material placed in the bladder, may be combined with external radiation, which comes from a machine located outside the body…
Biological therapy in India
Often a form of intravesical chemotherapy, biological therapy uses materials made by the body or made in a laboratory to boost, direct or restore the body’s natural defenses against the cancer.
