The first sign is almost always blood in the urine, and treatment - from TURBT to intravesical therapy or radical treatment - depends on how far the cancer has grown.
Visible or microscopic blood in the urine (haematuria) is the most prominent early symptom.
An increased need to urinate, or a sensation of urgency even when the bladder is not full.
Discomfort during urination that is often mistaken for a urinary tract infection or bladder stones.
Carried out under general anaesthetic, this removes visible tumours from the bladder lining using a resectoscope, usually with a 24 to 48 hour stay.
Mitomycin C or BCG immunotherapy given directly into the bladder to reduce the chance of recurrence.
For muscle-invasive cancer, more extensive options such as cystectomy or radical radiotherapy are considered.
Blood in the urine deserves rapid investigation - most patients are seen within a few days.
Cystoscopy and imaging confirm the diagnosis, and grading and staging show exactly what you are dealing with.
From TURBT to intravesical therapy or radical treatment - matched to the stage and grade of the cancer.
