Please get a second opinion.. I thought an RC was an all or nothing kind of deal..

Just make sure a urologist oncologist gets a look see

Hudsongrl is pinpointing the very important thing to do. GET A SECOND OPINION. Partial removal is only an alternative in some cases, not a standard treatment. Get a second opinion from a urologist with many years of experience from bladder cancer.

Are you seeing Dr. Kozlowski? The removal of the tumor is very important in overall outcome.
Best luck to your husband!

Good morning, everyone!

Thank you soooo much for your responses!!!

My husband had a depression for two days and couldn't tell me exactly what a doctor told him. Finally, yesterday he explained to me that he doesn't need to remove the entire bladder but only some part of it. He feels better and I thing he is ready to fight.

Have a great day!!!
