TURBT is the therapy to detect the bladder cancer and remove any excessively large growth or lesions on the bladder wall. TURBT is a method used to diagnose bladder cancer. A tumour in the bladder is a blood lining cancer. It generally looks like a piece of red chocolate that rises from the bladder wall. A lot of blood vessels are found inside the tumour. They bleed as they crack. That’s why most patients get blood in their urine for these tumours.

It normally takes about 45 minutes-1 hour to perform a TURBT surgery.

What would the recovery time from TURBT be like?

• Drink plenty of water for the first two days to help your urine drain and lower your urinary infection risk. It is necessary to complete the whole course if you are prescribed antibiotics.
• Please ask the surgeon to give you pain medication if you need pain relief. Don’t try herbal goods over-the-counter.
• In the first 2 weeks after the procedure do not do heavy lifting, rough training or driving.
