Abstract
- This case study presents the diagnostic and therapeutic course of a 72-year-old male patient with a history of high-grade urothelial carcinoma with papillary features. The report outlines the patient's initial presentation, the intervention strategies employed, including transurethral resection and intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Gue'rin (BCG) therapy, the subsequent complications and clinical decisions following the intense symptoms post-treatment. The study highlights the challenges in managing bladder cancer in elderly patients, considering the tumor's characteristics, treatment responses, and the patient's quality of life.
