What does recurrent high-grade bladder cancer treatment involve?
Community Member
7 days agoMy bladder cancer that was treated in 2024 has returned and is high grade urothelial carcinoma which infiltrates into muscularis propria. My family and my team are considering the possible treatments and are about to get second opinion at Memorial Sloan Kettering. I'm happy to talk to others who have gone through it.

7 days agoRecurrent high-grade bladder cancer treatment is different for each person, and it usually depends on details that only a care team can review, such as test results, scans, and overall health. Getting a second opinion at a major cancer center can help patients and families feel more informed, and writing down questions before each visit may make those conversations easier. Others in the Bladder Cancer community who have faced a recurrence are welcome to share what they learned and how they found support along the way.
