What does aggressive bladder cancer mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bladder cancer grade: Agressiveness usually refers to the "grade" of cancer. This is a method of stating just how cancerous the cancer cells are. The more poorly differentiated the cells are under the microscope, the higher the grade. This usually reflects the likelihood of the cancer speading if not treateed. The "stage" of cancer usually refers to the size of the cancerous area or tumor or its degree of spread.
