Urachal adenocarcinoma stage 4

IF I understand your question, you are wondering what it means when the cancer has spread into the muscle? The cancer starts in the lining of the bladder and if it is discovered while still confined there it can be very curable. As it grows and develops it spreads and can extend into the muscles that control the bladder contractions. Once that happens it is often necessary to remove the bladder. If it goes beyond that and into the lymph nodes or other tissues chemotherapy of some type or immunotherapy is the only possibility.

Does that answer your question?

So sorry to hear. You are in one of the best places for treatment in such cases and the new immunotherapy drugs do offer a lot of hope.
