A member asked:

How is a urinary bladder pallinoma removed, and what is the recovery time?

You mean Papilloma?: They are usually removed through a lighted, fiber-optic viewing device (cystoscope) that is inserted through the urinary canal (urethra) into the bladder (cystoscopy). In cases where bladder polyps recur or have become malignant, treatment may necessitate surgically removing all visible tumors (transurethral resection or tur). Polyps may also be destroyed using electrical current (fulguration).

Varies: Recover time will vary depending on many factors including age, general health of the patient, infection control, blood sugar control, the exact type of procedure, and post-operative and follow up care. Discuss it with your surgeon and get their opinion as to what they feel is a reasonable recovery time for you.
