Bladder cancer is a malignant condition that develops in the cells lining the bladder. It is one of the most common types of cancer affecting the urinary system. Bladder cancer often starts in the innermost lining of the bladder and can grow into the muscular wall, posing a risk of spreading to nearby organs and lymph nodes.
Radical cystoprostatectomy is a surgical procedure performed to treat bladder cancer that has spread or poses a high risk of spreading. The procedure involves the removal of the entire bladder, prostate gland (in males), nearby lymph nodes, and sometimes other adjacent structures. The surgery requires several incisions to access and remove the affected organs and tissues.
After the procedure, the patient usually stays in the hospital for 5 to 10 days for monitoring and recovery. Pain management, wound care, and the initiation of physical activities are important aspects of the postoperative period. Urinary diversion options, such as an ileal conduit or neobladder, may be considered to provide an alternative way for the patient to store and pass urine.
