In this episode of Bladder Cancer Matters, host Rick Bangs talks with Cleveland Clinic urologic oncologist Dr. Rebecca Campbell about organ-sparing radical cystectomy and how, for carefully selected patients, surgeons may be able to preserve the vagina, uterus and ovaries while still prioritizing effective cancer treatment. Dr. Campbell explains who may be a candidate, how organ sparing can help protect sexual function, hormonal health, continence and overall quality of life and why women should feel empowered to ask their surgeon about their options\u2014or seek a second opinion if those options aren\u2019t discussed. It\u2019s an important conversation about looking beyond bladder removal to the life a patient wants to live after treatment.
