New laser transforms bladder tumour treatment
Frimley Health patients with bladder tumours can now have them removed in a quick and simple outpatient procedure – with no need for general anaesthetic or an overnight stay in hospital. The state-of-the-art laser treatment enables patients to be in and out of hospital in around 40 minutes. Previously, the removal of bladder tumours would have involved an hour and a half of theatre time plus pre-operative assessments, general anaesthesia and at least one night in hospital.
