What are the types of bladder cancer surgeries? Dietary considerations after bladder cancer surgery

Bladder cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs on the bladder mucosa. It is the most common malignant tumor in the urinary system and the most common tumor in the urinary system. But what should people do if they are unfortunately diagnosed with this terrifying tumor? Here I will introduce several surgical methods for bladder cancer and dietary precautions after surgery.

The cause of bladder cancer is basically that the patient's work requires long-term contact with chemical substances. For example, people in the rubber industry need to have long-term contact with antioxidants, and those engaged in decoration need to have long-term contact with paint, etc., all of which are likely to suffer from this disease.

Surgical method:

1. Transurethral resection of bladder tumors.

This surgery is both a diagnostic and therapeutic method. It can remove all tumors that can be observed with the naked eye, and can also remove tissue for pathological grading and staging.

2. Transurethral laser surgery.

The characteristics of laser surgery are that it can coagulate and vaporize. The efficacy and recurrence rate of this surgery are similar to those of electroresection, but a tumor biopsy is required before the operation for pathological diagnosis.

3. Photodynamic therapy.

This surgery is a treatment method that uses a cystoscope to combine laser and photosensitizer. It can effectively control tumor bleeding and multiple recurrences of tumors. This surgery can be used when the patient cannot tolerate multiple surgical treatments.

After bladder cancer surgery, patients must pay attention to their daily diet, eat light food, drink more tea, or drink Lingzhi. Cancer patients generally have an acidic constitution, so they should try to eat less bacon, peppers, chili peppers and other foods. They should eat more alkaline foods such as vegetables and fruits to maintain the body's acid-base balance.

The above are several surgical methods that bladder cancer patients can choose, as well as some dietary precautions after bladder cancer surgery. Although bladder cancer seems very scary, as long as everyone has regular physical examinations, can be discovered early, and can receive regular treatment, bladder cancer is just a "paper tiger"!
