Hello all. I’m a senior ENT surgeon in the UK, age 60 years generally fit and well. Had unexpected haematuria and a kind colleague did CT scan on me today. 2cm TCC bladder with no invasion on the scan. I’m having TURB tomorrow. I haven’t had a chance to discuss with the surgeon regarding further therapy but he did mention mitomycin single shot. I’m as ignorant in this field as anyone and would value any personal recommendations from experience. How long is recovery from this procedure as my managers would want me back ASAP due to very long ENT waiting lists!! Many thanks.
