Bladder tumor has a high incidence among urological tumors, and is a common and frequent disease, and there are many clinical examination methods, which are briefly introduced below.
Once a patient finds painless hematuria or bladder irritation symptoms such as urinary frequency, urinary urgency and pain, he must think about the possibility of bladder tumor and need to go to hospital for examination in time. The first thing you can do is to ask your doctor to do a simple physical examination, for example, to see if there is any pressure pain in the bladder area, and to see if there is any hard mass in the bladder area by rectal examination. The laboratory tests that need to be done include routine blood tests and urine cytology. Routine urine tests can detect the presence of hematuria and urine exfoliative cells can detect early urinary tract tumors.
For patients with abnormal urine routine or urinary shedding cell examination, ultrasound examination can be performed to clarify whether there are occupying lesions in the bladder; if ultrasound finds abnormalities, cystoscopy can be further examined. In addition, bladder CT or bladder MRI can be performed to make a more accurate judgment on the staging of bladder tumor, to see whether there is muscle infiltration or surrounding tissue invasion or metastasis. For patients with bladder tumor found by clinical hands, in addition to the above examinations, further examination of intravenous urography is usually required, because bladder tumor belongs to uroepithelial tumor. Through the above examinations, most bladder tumors can be diagnosed clearly.
