Bladder cancer often originates in the cells that line the inside of your bladder (urothelial cells). Urothelial cells can also be found in your kidneys and the tubes that link the kidneys to the bladder (ureters). Urothelial cancer can also occur in the kidneys and ureters, although it is far more common in the bladder.
Bladder cancer primarily affects the elderly. Approximately 9 out of 10 patients diagnosed with this illness are over the age of 55. Overall, males have a one in 27 risks of developing this disease over their lifetime.
The treatment for bladder cancer differs depending on the stage of the tumor and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. A urologist or an oncologist can diagnose a person with bladder cancer. Here we have compiled a list of doctors who have a vast knowledge of dealing with this type of cancer.
