1. What types of bladder tumor resection are available?
Types include transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), partial cystectomy, and radical cystectomy, depending on the tumor’s type and stage.
2. APTT Test
The APPT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) test measures the time it takes for blood to clot, evaluating the functionality of clotting factors in the blood.
It is crucial for diagnosing bleeding disorders, monitoring anticoagulant therapy, and assessing clotting function before surgery.
No special preparation is usually needed. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking.
Results are generally available within a few hours to 1 day after the test.
The test helps diagnose bleeding disorders such as hemophilia, monitor anticoagulant therapy, and assess clotting function for surgical evaluation.
3. Kidney Disease Specialist
Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition where the kidneys gradually lose function over time, leading to waste buildup in the body.
Common causes include diabetes, high blood pressure, glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney disease, and recurrent kidney infections.
Symptoms may include fatigue, swelling in ankles and feet, nausea, shortness of breath, confusion, and decreased urine output.
Diagnosis is made through blood tests, urine tests, imaging studies, and sometimes a kidney biopsy to assess kidney function and damage.
Treatments include medications to manage symptoms, lifestyle changes, dialysis, and in severe cases, kidney transplantation.
