What is Life like after Bladder Removal?

I had a papillary tumor resected and also have CIS. Can you direct me to any studies/reports about papillary/cis combo?

Thanks so much for the feedback. I'll be making the decision soon.

Here you go. There are countless other articles confirming this.

I would caution against stating one is cancer free after RC. There is always a chance of future metastatic recurrence. Although, with T1 and T2, that risk is significantly lower than with T3 or T4 but obviously never zero.

Best Wishes Rich, I too was recently diagnosed with High Grade papillary cancer myself and now researching non surgical options if I’m even a candidate or not?
