netcare Linksfield Hospital offers Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumour (TURBT) using advanced endoscopic equipment and the highest standards of urological practice. Founded in 1991, the hospital is based in Johannesburg, South Africa and has 319 beds making it useful for local and foreign patients.

TURBT is a procedure frequently used to treat bladder tumours, especially those detected during cystoscopy. In this course, it is necessary to insert a resectoscope through the urethra for the purpose of tumour removal and tissue sampling for detailed pathological examination. Subsequent treatment or regular follow-up cystoscopy may depend on the results and the risk of recurrence.
