About:

Depending on the stage and type of bladder cancer, some patients require a partial or radical cystectomy (removal of the bladder) to eliminate the cancer. Evidence is increasingly pointing to the benefits of sparing as much bladder as possible, in addition to keeping other organs that traditionally were removed. Learn more about who is a candidate for organ preservation in cystectomy for bladder cancer during this recorded webinar with urologic oncologist Armine Smith, director of urologic oncology at Sibley Memorial Hospital, member of the Greenberg Bladder Cancer Institute, and assistant clinical professor of urology at the Johns Hopkins Brady Urological Institute.
