Bladder Cancer

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D 

Guest: Mark D. Tyson, III, M.D., M.P.H. 

Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, and primary care clinicians are often the first to evaluate patients with bladder cancer. The symptoms are usually subtle and may include either gross or microscopic hematuria. The decision in whether to investigate these presenting symptoms can often impact early diagnosis and the patient’s outcome. When should we investigate hematuria? What should an evaluation of hematuria consist of? What is the treatment for bladder cancer? How should patients with recurrent bladder cancer be managed? What role does the primary care clinician play in the long-term management of patients? I’ll be asking these questions and more of my guest, Dr. Mark Tyson, a urologist at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Bladder Cancer”.
