Advanced Bladder Tumor Care
TURBT is an endoscopic (scarless) procedure used for the diagnosis and removal of bladder tumors. The tumor is removed through the natural urine passage using a special instrument, and the tissue is sent for biopsy to confirm the type and stage.
No external cut (scarless)
Removes tumor + provides biopsy
Early treatment prevents spread
Fast recovery with short stay
TURBT is advised when a bladder tumor is suspected on ultrasound/CT scan or seen on cystoscopy, or when symptoms suggest a bladder growth that requires removal and biopsy.
Painless blood in urine (visible or microscopic) is a common warning sign.
Increased urgency, frequency, or burning sensation during urination.
Clots or tumor may cause difficulty passing urine or retention.
Growth detected on ultrasound/CT or confirmed by cystoscopy.
TURBT is performed under anesthesia. A special instrument is passed through the urine passage to the bladder. The tumor is removed carefully and sent for biopsy to confirm diagnosis and guide further treatment.
Step 01
A resectoscope is inserted through urine passage into the bladder.
Step 02
The tumor is identified clearly using endoscopic camera guidance.
Step 03
Tumor is removed safely and bleeding is controlled carefully.
Step 04
Tissue is sent for biopsy and further treatment is planned accordingly.
TURBT is the most important first step in bladder tumor management as it removes the tumor and confirms diagnosis.
Scarless removal through urine passage
Accurate diagnosis with biopsy confirmation
Early treatment improves outcomes
Short recovery and quick discharge
Short stay is common depending on bleeding and catheter requirement.
Most patients return to routine gradually as advised by the doctor.
Adequate fluids and follow-up help in smooth healing and reduce irritation.
TURBT is done to remove bladder tumors and confirm diagnosis by biopsy. It is an essential step in bladder tumor management.
Further treatment depends on biopsy results. Your doctor will guide you for follow-up and next steps.
