The deep type which may reach the muscles of the bladder must be treated by removal of the bladder. If the disease get out of the bladder then it is treated by chemotherapy. In some early cases of bladder cancer, it is possible to substitute the bladder with a bladder made of the small or large intestine. This type of substitution is dependant on the type of the original tumour, the general condition of the patient and the previous management modalities. If the case is inoperable and the radical removal of the disease is not possible, multi chemotheraputic regiems are used.
