What is Urinary Bladder Cancer?

Urinary bladder cancer begins in the cells that line the inside of the bladder, a hollow organ in the lower abdomen that stores urine. The most common type is urothelial carcinoma (a cancer that starts in the inner lining of the bladder or urinary tract), which can grow slowly or aggressively depending on bladder cancer staging.

Urinary Bladder Cancer Treatment in Kolkata

Dr. Dutta offers advanced, minimally invasive treatment based on the stage and spread of the tumour.

Initial treatment usually begins with TURBT (Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumour), followed by intravesical therapy (medicines directly into the bladder). When the cancer hasn’t spread to other parts and hasn’t invaded muscle tissue, Dr. Ranajoy may recommend partial or radical cystectomy (bladder removal), with reconstruction options or urinary diversion.

In more advanced cases, chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy may be recommended as a part of a complete bladder cancer treatment plan tailored to the patient’s condition.

    FAQS

    Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers.

    Is bladder cancer always aggressive?

    Not always. Many bladder cancers grow slowly and respond well to early treatment.

    Can bladder cancer come back?

    Yes, recurrence is common, which is why routine follow-ups and scans are essential.

    Will I lose my bladder during treatment?

    Possibly yes, but only in advanced stages. Early-stage cancer is often treated without removing the bladder.

    What stage is my cancer? How serious is it?

    Staging depends on how serious the tumour has grown into the bladder wall and whether it has spread. Dr. Ranajoy Dutta will guide you throughout the process.

    Does blood in urine always mean cancer?

    Not necessarily, but it’s a concerning sign that needs immediate evaluation.
