A member asked:
What is the survival rate for bladder cancer for a man in his 50s?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on stage: The prognosis of bladder cancer is dependent on how deeply has the tumor penetrated the bladder wall, or stage of the disease. It varies from 98% for early stage to 15% 5 year survival for late stage. See this site for more info. http://www.cancer.org/cancer/bladdercancer/detailedguide/bladder-cancer-survival-rates.
