What is Blood :




Blood is the connective tissue that exists in the form of a liquid in the human body. The blood is made up of three basic types of cells. These are the red blood corpuscles or RBC, the white blood corpuscles or WBC and platelets. Apart from these three main constituents blood also contains plasma. The plasma is nothing but a celluloid matrix that keeps all the components of the blood in a suspended state.

There are basically four types of bladder cancer : a. Squamous cell carcinoma. b. Adenocarcinoma. c. Transitional cell carcinoma (or urothelial cell carcinoma) d. Small cell carcinoma. Invasiveness Cancer:- Invasiveness : If the cancerous cell outgrowth remains superficial without penetrating the main muscle layers of the bladder then the cancer is said to be non-invasive type of cancer. Whereas, if the cancerous growth tends to penetrate the inner muscle linings of the bladder then it is called invasive cancer.

Adenocarcinoma : According to the statics of the US cancer society about 1% of all bladder cancer cases are adenocarcinomas. The cancer cells, when observed under the microscope show many common features, when compared to the gland – forming cells of the colon cancer. Nearly all adenocarcinoma of the bladder are invasive in nature. Squamous Cell Carcinoma : According to the US cancer society, the squamous cell carcinoma accounts for about 1% to 2% of all the cases of bladder cancer. Under the microscope these cells look like flat cells, that are found on the surface of the skin. Almost all squamous cell carcinoma are invasive in nature.

What is RBC And WBC

RBC (Red Blood Corpuscles) : The red blood corpuscles or the RBC are radial disc shaped cells, these cells generally have any nucleus and are meant to simply carry oxygen to the different parts of the body. These cells are red in color and contain a substance called hemoglobin. The existence of this hemoglobin is also the reason for the red color of the RBCs. The RBCs are produced in a region called as the bone marrow. The bone marrow is a spongy substance that is found in the hollow parts of the large bones of the body. The bone marrow produces RBCs round the clock. WBC (White Blood Corpuscles) : The white blood corpuscles or the WBCs are amoeboid structures that are present in the blood to fight infections within the body. These cells attack any foreign component that might enter the blood either while having a transfusion or minor cuts, resulting in some amount of blood loss. These cells are produced in the lymph nodes of the body. These cells that represent the i
