Treatment of Bladder Cancer / Ureteric Cancer / Renal Pelvis Cancer

Treatment is only given after a biopsy confirms a cancer is present. The biopsy is usually performed during a "cystoscopy" procedure in which a small tube and camera inspects the walls of the bladder, etc. Once the biopsy has been read, CT scans or MRIs will be ordered to determine whether the tumor has spread. Then a urologist (who is a surgeon specializing in bladder and kidneys) will recommend a treatment plan. Treatment options most frequently include chemotherapy given directly into the bladder. Systemic (to the whole body) chemotherapy is sometimes given. Surgery, radiation therapy, or a combination of the above may also be considered..
