How Can Residual Tumor In The Urinary Bladder After TURBT Be Treated?
Question: hi
My brother had a huge mass in his bladder few months ago, Doctors did TURBT and remove his mass from his bladder 99%. By the grace of GOD the tumor was benign. I will attach all the reports from the beginning. and recent reports as well. Initially he was having severe pain in his bladder and blood in urine. Now by the grace of GOD he is better but still having pain not that severe and still blood in his urine, some times. Doctor told him that they will do MRI , and told him that they there is small mass now about 0.6 which they cant remove completely so they want to block the vein which is going to that mass i believe or to stop the blood in urine. i dont know exactly
i have just uploaded the previous reports which was initially done by doctors, now i am attaching recent reports which was done this month

Brief Answer:
Mostly he has residual tumor
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .
I have gone through our previous discussion on your brother's problem and with recent scan I think he has residual tumor of size of 0.6cm .Considering the vascular origin of the tumor your Uro Oncologist has rightly advised you to go for coil embolization of a vessels that supplies blood to the tumor mass .
This is a procedure where a coil is pushed in a artery that supplies blood to the tumor mass .This cuts off the blood supply to the tumor which eventually leads to death of a tumor mass which will help to stop bleeding from tumor mass and into urine,
This is a non invasive procedure and offers excellent and permanent cure.
Do write if you need any more clarification .
Thanks and Regards

I am so glad Dr XXXXXXX that i have you back again because you have already studied my brother case before. Dr XXXXXXX today he went for a second opinion and no one is giving a clear answer about his pain, i wanted to ask you about this after this procedure that pain will go as well ? Today Dr told him that may be its a inflammation which he is having, for that he is having Cranmax some sort of powder shape cranberry powder . plus is uric acid is high as well at the moment so doctor told him to stop red meat. Dr XXXXXXX if its the inflammation do you recommend ginger water banana , fish and honey ?

Inflamation following surgery of TURBT takes time to heal up Hence it is common to have pain for few months
Take pain killers like Brufen or Diclofenac twice daily.
As regards your query about banana,ginger juice etc I have no knowledge about efficacy of these items . You may take your own decision
