TURBT Procedure
- Step 1: Medical Evaluation : A detailed evaluation, including urine tests, imaging, cystoscopy, and other investigations, is performed to assess the bladder abnormality.
- Step 2: Surgical Planning : The procedure is planned based on the size, location, and number of bladder tumors.
- Step 3: Endoscopic Tumor Removal : A resectoscope is inserted through the urethra to carefully remove the bladder tumor without making any external incision. The removed tissue is sent for laboratory examination.
- Step 4: Recovery & Observation : Patients are monitored after surgery, and a temporary urinary catheter may be placed if required.
- Step 5: Follow-up Care : Follow-up appointments and pathology reports help determine whether additional treatment or surveillance is needed.
Recovery After TURBT Surgery
Most patients recover within a few days after TURBT. Mild burning during urination, temporary blood in the urine, or increased urinary frequency may occur initially and generally improve with proper care.
Patients should stay well hydrated, avoid strenuous activities for a short period, take prescribed medications, and attend follow-up visits for continued monitoring.
