Bladder Cancer Treatment

In Karol Bagh, Delhi

Bladder cancer begins when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the lining of the bladder, the organ that stores urine. It is more common in older adults and, when detected early, often responds well to treatment.

Symptoms

Blood in the urine is the most common early sign, sometimes without pain. Other symptoms include frequent urination, pain or burning during urination, urgency, and lower back pain.

Causes

Smoking is a major risk factor, along with exposure to certain industrial chemicals, chronic bladder infections or irritation, and family history. Age and prior radiation therapy to the pelvis may also increase risk.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis typically involves urine tests, imaging such as CT urogram, and cystoscopy, a procedure that allows direct visualisation of the bladder lining along with biopsy if needed.

Treatment

Treatment depends on the stage and may include surgery, intravesical therapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy. M|O|C Cancer Care Center in Karol Bagh, Delhi, offers comprehensive diagnostic and treatment support for bladder cancer patients.
