Bladder Cancer
The article entitled “Bladder Cancer Treatment” discusses the causes, symptoms, and signs of bladder cancer. The article also discusses basic facts and information about the bladder and bladder cancer.
The article states that the cancer is the overproduction and uncontrollable growth of irregular cells. Bladder cancer most commonly begins in the Transitional cell carcinoma, or the innermost bladder cells that allow to bladder to stretch and shrink depending on the amount of urine within. This form of bladder cancer often recurs, and almost all deaths from bladder cancer come from this form. The two other forms of bladder cancer are Squamous cell carcinoma, and Adenocarcinoma, Adenocarcinoma is the rarest form. The article
It must be emphasized that MVD evaluation under the microscope is somewhat subjective and inter-observer variation can be substantial (7) . So, we proceeded for the data analysis of the angiogenesis of the bladder lesions and correlating them with the type of cells, tumor stage, grade and incidence of recurrence.
In Egypt, the urinary bladder cancers accounts for 30.3% of all cancers, of which the
The nurse would have arranged for Mr. Thomas to receive training, so that he is able to transfer his wife safety from the bed to a chair. Educating Mr. Thomas to safely participate in his wife’s care will prevent caregiver and patient injuries and will help Mr. Thomas not rely on paid staff to
Cancer is defined by the National Cancer Institute as ?the title given to a group of related diseases. All types of cancer are categorized by uncontrollable growth of cells that metastasize to surrounding tissues.? Cancer can develop at almost any part of the human body and anyone can develop cancer, although risk typically increases with age because most cancers tend to require many years to develop. ?Typically, human cells tend to grow and divide and ultimately form new cells as the body needs them. When an organisms cells grow old or get damaged, the cells die, and new ones replace them. However when cancer
In the article, I read that cancer is evolving around many countries. The cancer classifies as an outrageous cell growth that can damage DNA. The bladder is a depressed organ located in the lower portion of the diaphragm that collects the urine produced by the kidneys. Bladder cancer affects older adults around the ages of 60 and up but can diagnostically happen early. Some symptoms include dark urine, frequent urination, and the common symptom is blood in the urine. These symptoms cause pain during urination. A common type of bladder cancer is urothelial carcinoma or transitional cell carcinoma. Consequently, this causes the invasion of progressive, transitional cells of the wall and the vessels of the bladder broadcasting into other organs.
When visiting with your urologist they will probably schedule you for an inpatient or outpatient procedure to do a cystoscopy. For this exam, a urologist will place a cystoscope, which is a slender tube with a light and lens through the opening of the urethra and moves it into the bladder. Sterile salt water is then injected through the scope to expand the bladder and allow the doctor to look at the inner lining of the bladder. Usually, the first cystoscopy will be done in the office and if another one is needed it will be done in the hospital. If an abnormal growth is found it will be biopsied. A thin
Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the United States. It's the third most common cancer in men and the 11th in women. There are 16,870 deaths caused by bladder cancer and about 79,000 new cases each year. Some risks that can cause this type of cancer is the use of tobacco, family history of bladder cancer and genetic mutations. A sign that you may have bladder cancer, is blood in the urine, pain when urinating and frequent urination. Although some people may pass this sign off as a bladder infection, it is always a good idea to have a full body check up each year. Treatments for bladder cancer may include a BCG vaccination, radiation therapy, chemotherapy or the surgical removal of the bladder. Of course, treatments will vary
Cancer is given to a whole collection of related diseases. Cancer cells begin to divide unregulated and spread into surrounding tissues. Scientists have proposed that lots of SP2 protein may transform to normal cells into cancer cells. In addition, the deprivation of specific co-stimulated molecules can impair the natural killer cells ability and lead to the cancer. Cancer occurs almost anyplace in the human body. Cells become old and become more abnormal or cells, which are damaged when they should die, divide without stopping and may constitute growths called tumors. Also cancer cells are less specialized than normal cells. The first and original tumor is called primary tumor. Primary tumor may spread to other parts of the body and create new tumors.
In "A Problem with How We Treat Cancer and How to Fix it,” Cindy Finch, the clinical social worker, argues that after being diagnosed with cancer five years ago, she could recover from the disease but not from her emotional condition. When she was recurring her medical visits, she noticed that doctors and hospitals are focus on the equipment, and medical resources that help people to survive their diagnosis, but they do not worry about the post-traumatic and emotional support for life after cancer. Finch, suggest that to optimize cancer recovery, medical community must integrate and turn psycho-social healthcare in a new phase of cancer treatment. Using help from a survivor specialist that assist and tech patients and their family, to find
My father had bladder cancer in his early 90’s and I did not give much thought to what caused the cancer since most of his siblings had previously passed due to some form of cancer. However, I have now learned that bladder cancer is mainly common in someone that is older than 55 years of age with an average age at diagnosis of 73. Diagnosis of bladder cancer in someone younger than the age of 40 is very rare but it still could happen at any age. Bladder cancer is also more common in men than women and in white males
Bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancers among men and the ninth most common cancer in women in United States. It is also the most expensive cancer to manage on a per-patient basis. Bladder cancer is so expensive because it has a very high recurrence rate, around 70%. This necessitates lifetime follow-ups and frequent treatment of recurrent tumors. In the USA, the annual cost of bladder cancer care is $4.25 billion in 2013 and expected to be $5.25 billion in
Cervical cancer is the cancer of the cells of the cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that connect the body of the uterus to the vagina. It is made up of two parts: the endocervix and the exocervix. The endocervix is covered by glandular cells and the part of the cervix closest to the uterus. The excocervix is covered in squamous tissue and is the part of the cervix closest to the vagina. The squamous and glandular cells meet at the transformation zone and this is where most cervical cancer. There are 3 types of cervical cancer: squamous cell carcinomas, adenocarcinomas, and adenosquamous carcinomas. Up to nine out of ten cervical cancer is squamous cell carcinomas and starts in the exocervix. Adenocarcinomas develops in the
They reported that the malignant cells present singly and in clusters. The cell shapes are asymmetric, with pyramidal, spindle and racquet forms, frequently with cytoplasmic tails(8). These flat-ended irregular shaped cells were afterwards designated ‘cercariform’ cells by Powers and Elbadawi(9). Cardillo et. al. described the cytologic features of nested variant urothelial carcinoma. They reported that the neoplastic cells medium sized, round or polygonal, with abundant, dense and slightly granular basophilic cytoplasm and well defined borders. The nuclear membranes had irregular contours and the nuclei contained coarse chromatin with occasional prominent
Yes, Bladder cancer is a common disease but there are ways of killing it or preventing it. But if it tends to pass onto a person from their parents, then there is treatment, Afterwards, there are no worries in it coming back, it may take awhile before the fears disappear but there are cancer survivors out there that has lived through it. But in another sense, bladder cancer might never go away completely. Learning to live with this cancer living inside of a person can be stressful and very difficult but getting regular checkups with the doctor can be extremely helpful. If a person does get this cancer, they are at a risk of developing a second bladder cancer if it is not properly treated. All in all, this type of cancer is very well-known
Bladder cancer can occur at any age and stage of life, even children. The incidence rate of cancer increases with age. This incidence rate of bladder cancer in the Males is higher than females, it’s higher 3 to 4 times in male than femal. The most common types of bladder cancer are transitional cell carcinoma that recapitulates the normal histology of the urothelium, it is more properly urothelial cell carcinoma. The five years survival rates of bladder cancer after surgery and other choice of treatments are around 77% as reported in the United States [3].
