Patient's question:
This month, my father suddenly had blood in his urine with no pain or discomfort. After seeing a doctor, the ultrasound test showed no problems with the bladder, but multiple tumors were found in the prostate. The urine test results were all elevated. The doctor recommended a biopsy to determine if the tumors are benign or malignant. Due to the suspension of outpatient services during the Spring Festival, I was unable to visit the hospital. There is no history of hereditary diseases in our family. I came here to seek advice from everyone, hoping that the tumors are not malignant.Doctor's answer:
Bladder cancer is a malignant tumor with relatively low malignancy. Generally, bladder cancer has the following treatment methods:Surgical treatment: Surgical treatment is the main method for treating bladder cancer. The specific scope and methods of surgery should be determined through a comprehensive analysis of factors such as the stage of the tumor, its degree of malignancy, pathological type, size, location, and whether it has affected adjacent organs. However, surgical treatment can only remove macroscopically visible solid tumors and cannot prevent the spread of cancer cells or eliminate cancer cells in the bloodstream.
2. Radiotherapy: Bladder radiotherapy is often implemented before or after surgery, and combining it with single-agent Panax notoginseng saponins Rh2 (Humen) with a content of 16% and other traditional Chinese medicines can reduce treatment side effects.
