Bladder Cancer

• Bladder cancer can be formed in any the layers
  that line walls of the bladder.The most common
  form of bladder cancer is transitional cell
  carcinoma, which is seen as growths, like small
  mushrooms, growing out of the bladder lining. In
  most cases, this form of cancer will be confined
  to the bladders lining and is unlikely to
  spread.In some cases, however, transitional
  cell carcinoma invades through the lining and
  into the muscular wall of the bladder, and
  sometimes into additional nearby organs.Less
  common cancers of the bladder include squamous
  cell carcinomas, which are most common in
  developing countries. Another is adenocarcinoma,
  which is a cancer of the cells in the lining of
  the bladder that produce mucus.

Signs Symptoms of Bladder Cancer

• A sign is an identification that can be seen or
  felt by someone else. The most common sign of
  bladder cancer is blood in the urine.A symptom
  is a feeling or something unusual you notice such
  as changes in bladder habits, for example having
  to urinate more often than usual or feelings of
  pain or burning during urination.It is very
  important to note that many bladder cancer signs
  and symptoms are also associated with other
  diseases and conditions and may not necessarily
  indicate bladder cancer. It is important to
  discuss any of the symptoms with your doctor.

Treatment of Bladder Cancer

• Different kinds of bladder cancer respond
  differently to treatment. Treatment and recovery
  rates basically depend on how far into the
  bladders layers the cancer has grown.The most
  common treatment for bladder cancer confined to
  the bladders lining is minimal invasive surgery
  to remove the tumor.For cancer that has invaded
  the bladders muscles and other organs, surgical
  removal of the bladder is the most common
  treatment. When this approach is taken,
  surrounding lymph nodes may also be removed to
  prevent recurrence, or the cancer spreading to
  other organs.

Treatment of Bladder Cancer

• After the bladder has been removed, surgeons
  create a new method for the storage and removal
  of urine. Commonly, a conduit has been created
  using a segment of the small intestine to
  transfer urine from the kidneys, through an
  opening on the skin, into an external collection
  bag. Other methods, involving the creation of a
  new internal bladder, are becoming more
  common.Patients suffering from invasive cancer
  are often treated with chemotherapy before or
  after surgery.In some cases, doctors may opt to
  preserve the bladder through a combination of
  radiation therapy and chemotherapy, rather than
  remove it.
