Oncology bladder cancer and urothelial neoplasias of the urinary tract are serious medical conditions that can be devastating to individuals and their families. These conditions arise when abnormal cells develop in the bladder or cells that line the bladder and other parts of the urinary tract. Symptoms include painless blood in the urine, having to urinate frequently, and pain during urination. Treatment options may include surgical removal of the tumor, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy. Early diagnosis and treatment of these conditions is key to maximize the chance of successful recovery. Urologists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of oncology bladder cancer and urothelial neoplasias of the urinary tract and can advise you about the best course of action for your individual situation.
