Bladder Cancer Expand Content Overview Most individuals with bladder cancer have superficial and non-invasive tumors. Treatment for these tumors is often very effective with an excellent prognosis. The remainder of bladder cancers invade deep into the bladder wall and muscle and the risk is greater for the cancer to spread to other areas of the body. Depending on the type of bladder cancer, treatment may include a cystectomy, or bladder removal, through robotic assisted surgery.
