BCG treatments for Low grade urothelial carcinoma
My dad had a TURBT last week and the path came back as low grade!!!!
Non invasive low grade urothelial carcinoma.
Architectural: papillary
Flat carcinoma in situ: not present
Lamina propria: present but not involved by Tumor
Muscularis propria: present but not involved by tumorDad had his follow up today and doctor is thrilled it’s low grade but he is still recommending BCG for 6 weeks. Said he saw an area near the tumor that he thought looked angry. He used the cautery to remove this. His idea is that the cancer could have been shedding there. Therefore he would like to do the BCG to wipe any escaped cells away. Thoughts???????
