2020 BCAN Walk to End Bladder Cancer – Chapel Hill

Sourthern Community Park 1000 Sumac Rd, Chapel Hill, NC, United States

We are walking as a team to raise funds for the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network (BCAN), the only national advocacy organization devoted to advancing bladder cancer research and supporting those impacted by the disease. By making a donation to our team, you will be helping BCAN promote bladder cancer research, education and support programs – but, most importantly, to save lives.

BCAN Webinar: “Tobacco and Bladder Cancer: Cigarettes, E-cigarettes, and Why Quitting is So Important”

Zoom

Smoking is the only preventable cause of bladder cancer and is a well-known risk for complications. Continued cigarette use increases the risk of bladder cancer coming back. The risk association between e-cigarettes and smokeless tobacco and bladder cancer is less well known. People who use electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) may have similar carcinogens in their urine as cigarette smokers that are linked to bladder cancer, according to study findings published in European Urology Oncology. Join Dr. Richard Matulewicz, MD (NYU Langone) and Marc Bjurlin, DO, MSC, FCOS (UNC Urology) to discuss.
