Let's know More About Tumor
Urothelial cancer (also called bladder cancer) arises from the lining of the urinary system, including the bladder, ureters, and renal pelvis. For many patients, the first sign is blood in the urine — which can be alarming. While hearing the word “cancer” is frightening, advances in targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and systemic treatments now offer patients much better outcomes and quality of life than ever before.
My mission is to ensure that each patient receives personalized care, combining the latest scientific advancements with compassionate support throughout their journey.
Most Commonly Found Symptoms

Urothelial cancer often gives early warning signs. According to Dr. Hirapara, recognizing these symptoms early improves the chance of a cure.
Blood in Urine (Hematuria)
It can often be painless and can be seen It could be discovered solely in a laboratory test or show up as red, pink, or cola-colored.
Frequent Urination
You may feel the need to urinate more often than usual, especially during the night, even if you haven’t increased your fluid intake.
Pain or Burning During Urination
There may be a burning or stinging sensation while urinating that doesn’t improve with standard treatment, like antibiotics.
Urgency or Difficulty Passing Urine
You might feel a sudden, strong urge to urinate but pass only a small amount or find it hard to start or maintain the stream.
Pelvic or Lower Back Pain
Discomfort or aching may be felt in the lower abdomen, pelvis, or back, especially as the disease progresses.

Frequent bladder infections that don’t fully clear or keep returning could be a warning sign of something more serious.

Expertise
Many urinary symptoms are mistaken for infections or age-related issues. That’s why a timely, accurate diagnosis is critical.
Here’s how I approach each case:
- Accurate Diagnosis & Staging – urine tests, cystoscopy, imaging, and biopsy.
- Genetic and Molecular Testing We check for mutations like FGFR, which can guide targeted therapy.
- Personalized Treatment – tailored plans depending on stage (non-muscle invasive, muscle invasive, or advanced).
- Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy – chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and biological agents.
- Collaborative Care – working closely with urologists and radiation oncologists to ensure holistic treatment.
