  Twenty-one months after her initial diagnosis, the patient presented to the ED with complaints of fever, weakness, and passing blood clots in urine with dysuria. [appliedradiology.com]

  Not only is a weak immune system a major reason patients have cancer — and cancer itself can further weaken the immune system. Beta glucans help regulate the immune system, making it more efficient. [cancertutor.com]

  Though symptoms of the onset of the disease are mild at first, cancer of the bladder may lead to anemia, urinary incontinence or a blockage of the urethra which prevents urine from draining into the bladder normally (known as hydronephrosis). [roboticoncology.com]

  During radiation, the patient developed GrIII anemia and GrIII diarrhea which was managed efficiently, with conservative approach. [ccij-online.org]

  Blood that can be visibly seen is gross hematuria. Having blood in the urine does not mean that individuals definitely have cancer. In fact, there are several urologic conditions in which hematuria is a symptom. [urologyaustin.com]

• Incontinence

  The patient had a complicated clinical course and suffered recurrent urinary tract infections, renal calculi, and urinary incontinence and was managed with intermittent as well as indwelling catheterization. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Finally, a thorough clinical workup is required to rule out another primary adenocarcinoma that may have metastasized. Urachal adenocarcinoma can show immunoreactivity for both CK20 and CK7, in addition to CDX2. [path.upmc.edu]

Further workup included colonoscopy showing multiple adenomatous polyps were identified without invasive malignancy and cystoscopic evaluations. Cystoscopy revealed a massive amount of mucoid material within the bladder associated with a mass. [jmedicalcasereports.com]

Cystoscopy, cytology, and biopsy when necessary are the principal diagnostic tests (see Workup ). [emedicine.medscape.com]

Complete response was achieved at the end of this treatment. Today the patient is free of local or systemic disease. FOLFOX4 regimen may be a treatment option for primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Strategies to Improve Treatment The progress that has been made in the treatment of bladder cancer has resulted from improved treatment developed in clinical trials. [texasoncology.com]

Treatment Options by Stage For information about the treatments listed below, see the Treatment Option Overview section. [cancer.gov]

Treatments for Bladder Cancer Treatment options depend on the stage and grade of the tumor. For lower grade and lower stage tumors, often TURBT alone is used as treatment. [compurocare.com]

Radiation Therapy Although surgery is the frontline treatment for bladder cancer, radiation treatment has a role in certain patients. [mdanderson.org]

Although the prognosis of T4 bladder adenocarcinomas has been reported to be quite poor in comparison with that of transitional cell carcinomas, the postoperative prognosis of T4 rectal adenocarcinomas has been reported to be more favorable and such tumors [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Studies of AC of the bladder have reported a poor prognosis, with 5-year survival rates ranging from 0% to 31%. [am.asco.org]

Treatment and prognosis Due to their extravesical location, urachal carcinomas present very late and thus carry a poor prognosis. Radical cystectomy is considered the treatment of choice. [radiopaedia.org]

Prognosis is poor with 5-year survival rate of 18-47%, and high proportion presents with higher stage including up to 40% with metastasis at the time of diagnosis. advertisement advertisement [auanet.org]
