What is Bladder Cancer?

Bladder cancer originates in the cells of the urinary bladder and is classified based on how deeply it invades the bladder wall:

Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC)
Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC)

Early diagnosis and surgical intervention significantly improve survival rates.

Types of Bladder Cancer Surgeries Offered

✅ Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT)

A minimally invasive endoscopic procedure used for diagnosis and treatment of early-stage bladder tumors.

✅ Radical Cystectomy

Complete removal of the bladder, often necessary for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Includes:

Removal of nearby lymph nodes
Removal of prostate (in men) or uterus/ovaries (in women), if needed

✅ Partial Cystectomy

Removal of only the cancerous portion of the bladder, preserving bladder function in select cases.

✅ Urinary Diversion / Neobladder Reconstruction

Reconstructive options post-cystectomy:

Ileal conduit (external pouch)
Continent reservoir (internal pouch)
Neobladder (constructed from intestine to function like a bladder)
