Frequently Asked Questions

Can bladder cancer be cured with TURBT?

If the tumor is small and low-grade, TURBT may be curative for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, because recurrence rates are high, regular surveillance is necessary. Additional treatments, such as BCG, chemotherapy, or cystectomy, are typically needed for high-grade or invasive tumors. Post-TURBT plans in Turkey adhere to NICE guidelines.

After TURBT, how long is the hospital stay?

The majority of patients are either discharged the same day or stay for one day. We'll keep an eye out for any bleeding or infections. One to two days may be spent with a catheter in place.

After TURBT, is a catheter always necessary?

Yes, following surgery, a catheter is frequently placed to drain blood and urine. It keeps clots from forming and aids in bladder healing. Most catheters are removed within a day or two. Care instructions will be given to you before discharge.

In Turkey, who does TURBT?

Qualified urologists with expertise in treating disorders of the male reproductive system and urinary tract perform TURBT (Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor) in Turkey. After completing a six-year medical degree and a five-year urology residency, many of these physicians go on to complete additional training or fellowships, frequently in endourology or uro-oncology. Accredited hospitals and public university hospitals often perform TURBT procedures, guaranteeing access to cutting-edge methods and postoperative care.

Can I choose the urologist in Turkey?

Yes, you can request a referral to a hospital or specialist of your choice under the NH patient choice scheme. You can get information about the top-rated TURBT centres from your general practitioner. Regional differences may exist in wait times and the availability of specialists.

Which hospitals in Turkey are most renowned for treating bladder cancer?

Specialised oncology and urology teams can be found in renowned hospitals. The location, urgency, and complexity of your case will determine which hospital is best for you.

Does TURBT have an impact on sex?

Emotional and physical stress can have short-term effects on sexual function, such as discomfort and low libido. For at least two weeks, you should refrain from having sex. See your general practitioner or a urology nurse if the issues persist. NHS sexual health clinics assist. The majority of patients resume their regular sexual function.

Does TURBT have an impact on sex?

Emotional and physical stress can have short-term effects on sexual function, such as discomfort and low libido. For at least two weeks, you should refrain from having sex. The majority of patients resume their regular sexual function.

Before TURBT, should I seek a second opinion?

Yes, it makes sense to get a second opinion if you have any doubts about the diagnosis, the suggested course of treatment, or your hospital stay. It guarantees that you get the best plan, particularly for suspected invasive cancer. Medigence provides a second opinion service globally through its platform.

Can I ask for a specific doctor?

Indeed, you have the right to request a referral to any consultant of your choice. Waiting times and availability may affect this. In addition to choosing a hospital where your preferred physician practices, your general practitioner can assist with referrals. In elective settings, this decision is simpler than in emergencies.
