What Does the Bladder Do When the bladder is functioning normally, it fills with fluid-waste (urine) and stores it until full. When the brain signals that the bladder is full, it activates the urinary tract system to relieve the pressure. When the bladder doesn't function as it should, you may experience several uncomfortable, painful or even serious symptoms, such as frequent urination, the urge to pee or pain.

The procedure takes about five to 10 minutes. MRIs, CTs and ultrasounds provide detailed, 3D images of your bladder. We use a combination of X-rays and injectable dye to understand how your urinary tract is working.

Bladder-Sparing Treatment If we need to perform surgery for bladder cancer, we may be able to spare part of the bladder. We remove the tumor, leaving as much healthy tissue behind as possible. After surgery, you'll have chemotherapy and radiation therapy to destroy any remaining cancer cells.

Bladder-sparing surgery has many benefits, including faster recovery time and better quality of life after surgery. Bladder Removal (Cystectomy) In some cases, the best treatment option may be removing the entire bladder. For men, we may have to remove part of the prostate and seminal vesicles as well.

Procedures include: Laparoscopic surgery: During this minimally invasive procedure, we make several small incisions in the abdomen and insert a thin, flexible tube (laparoscope) with surgical tools attached. We use these tools to remove the bladder and other tissue. Robotic surgery: Robotic surgery is also a minimally invasive procedure but uses specialized robotic surgical tools.

Robotic surgery offers a more detailed picture of your bladder and helps us operate with greater precision. Open surgery: We make a single long incision in the abdomen to access the bladder, urethra, prostate and other tissue we need to remove. Bladder Reconstruction (Neobladder) After bladder removal, you will need something to help urine travel from your kidneys and exit your body.
