A member asked:
Had a cat scan yesterday for a history of kidney cancer and they found diffuse bladder wall thickening due to underdistention. should this be investigated?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Underdistended bladder on ct scan can show a pattern simulating bladder wall thickening and mimic bladder cancer. Your urologist is best to advise whether further bladder evaluation, such as a complete ultrasound, is advisable or not.
