Actos Attorney12/15/2011: The elderly, frail individuals with multiple coexisting chronic illnesses, individuals that are weakened through mahiutrition or who have compromised immunity all would face substantially increased risk of complications from standard chemotherapy regimens for bladder cancer. Unfortunately, cisplatin is toxic to kidneys, and many individuals with bladder cancer have compromised kidney function which effectively rules out the use of platinum based chemotherapy. Other treatment regimens exist and are being worked on for these individuals, but none show the efficacy of the standard therapy which includes cisplatin.

Actos Attorney12/15/2011: When an individual has diffuse, high grade cancer of the bladder, even when superficial, bladder removal may be warranted. Many may have widespread carcinoma in situ (CIS) in conjunction with papillary disease. One can expect a high rate of recurrence and a high rate of progression to invasive disease. Generally, intravesical therapy is tried first. If this therapy is unsuccessful, repeated therapy or alternate intravesical therapies can be tried. However, with failure of intravesical therapy, further trials may prove to be equally ineffective and lead to unnecessary delay for potentially definitive curative therapy. Many recommend removal of the bladder if two courses of six weeks of BCG are ineffective. Therefore, radical cystectomy is a treatment option for any individual who is thought to be at significant risk for progression to musclc invasive and potentially metastatic disease.

Actos Attorney 12/15/2011: Ureteral injury may occur when a tumor covers the ureter in the bladder. The ureter may be obscured by a bladder tumor, and the urologist may inadvertently resect it along with the tumor. In general, cutting current to remove a bladder tumor does not usually lead to long lasting problems as compared to cauterization, which is more likely to cause permanent blockage or obstruction of the ureter. If the urologist is working in the area of the ureter, he should avoid cauterization as much as possible. He may ask the anesthetist to inject an intravenous coloring agent which will turn the urine blue and allow visualization of the ureter. If he knows a ureter may be in jeopardy, he may insert a stent (a small plastic tube that traverses the ureter) for several weeks to allow the ureter to heal in an open fashion.

Actos Attorney12/15/2011: Bleeding is usually present, but rarely severe. Some tumors are more vascular than others and will bleed more. In addition, the resection will involve the bladder wall and vascularity varies here as well. Transfusions are not generally required unless an individual starts with a low blood count from previous bleeding or medical condition. Bleeding can be an on going concern until the bladder completely heals weeks later. Catheterization and irrigation may be required. Just a small amount of blood will change the color of urine red. Urine that is punch colored or the color of rosé wine generally is not serious and will clear on its own. When the urine has large amounts of blood in it, the appearance generally looks like tomato juice, indicating serious bleeding requiring medical attention.

Actos Attorney 12/15/2011: A catheter is a plastic or rubber tube which is placed through the urethra into the bladder. It is kept in place by a fluid filled balloon, at the end of the catheter, which is inflated in the bladder. The tube allows for drainage of urine which may be mixed with blood after a TURBT. When small tumors are removed, a catheter is not usually required unless there is a concern that you may have difficulty urinating after the procedure because of an enlarged prostate, weak bladder or swelling of the urethra after instrumentation. After large tumors are resected, a catheter is often required.
