Carcinoma of the urinary bladder is one of the common malignant tumors. Men are affected twice as often as women. The main symptom is hematuria as microhematuria or painless macrohematuria. Pain does not occur until a tumor-related urinary obstruction develops in the upper urinary tract. In addition to X-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI, ureterorenoscopy has also established itself as an important diagnostic procedure.
