First: in addition to hematuria, patients with bladder cancer will also be accompanied by chronic bladder irritation, such as low fever, night sweats, weight loss and general weakness. This systemic symptom requires acid fast bacilli in urine or cystoscopy for differential diagnosis of bladder cancer.
