Urinary Bladder Cancer

What is Urinary Bladder Cancer?

Urinary bladder cancer originates in the bladder lining and can progress to other parts of the bladder or nearby organs. The most common type is transitional cell carcinoma. Early detection and treatment can lead to better outcomes.

Causes of Urinary Bladder Cancer:

Smoking: The primary risk factor, as harmful chemicals accumulate in the bladder.
Chemical Exposure: Prolonged exposure to certain chemicals, often in industrial environments, increases risk.
Chronic Bladder Infections: Recurrent bladder infections and irritations can elevate the chances of bladder cancer.
Genetic Factors: Family history of bladder cancer or specific genetic mutations may increase susceptibility.
Radiation Exposure: Prior radiation treatments around the pelvic region can also be a contributing factor.

Symptoms of Urinary Bladder Cancer:

Blood in urine (hematuria) – the most common symptom
Pain or burning sensation during urination
Frequent urination or feeling the need to urinate without being able to
Lower back pain or pelvic discomfort
