Morphometrical analysis of urothelial cells in voided urine of patients with low grade and high grade bladder tumours.
The morphometric differences between the urothelial cells (wet-fixed Papanicolaoustained) in the voided urine of 2 patients with low grade and high grade bladder tumours were measured. The morphometrical data of this learning set resulted in a cytomorphometrical classification rule, which was applied to a test set of 21 cases with low grade and high grade bladder tumours. The results of the cyt...
متن کاملPhotodynamic diagnosis of shed prostate cancer cells in voided urine treated with 5-aminolevulinic acid
BACKGROUND Past attempts at detecting prostate cancer (PCa) cells in voided urine by traditional cytology have been impeded by undesirably low sensitivities but high specificities. To improve the sensitivities, we evaluate the feasibility and clinical utility of photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) of prostate cancer by using 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) to examine shed prostate cancer cells in voided...
متن کاملThe diagnostic value of cytohistological urine analysis and cytokeratin 20 in malignant and atypical urothelial cells.
INTRODUCTION To determine the ability of cytohistology and cytokeratin 20 (CK 20) expression in malignant and atypical cells (AUC) from urine to serve as a diagnostic tool for assessing urothelial carcinoma (UC). METHODS Diagnoses from 55 urine cytological samples from 55 patients were analyzed and correlated with subsequent biopsy findings. A total of 50 archived urine slides from patients t...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of cytology of voided urine.
There are 961 new cases and approximately 366 deaths from urothelial carcinoma registered annually in Croatia. Exfoliative urinary cytology has important role in detection of high grade urinary tumors, invasive and in situ lesions respectively. In contrast to cystoscopy and biopsy, cytology is a noninvasive method which is easily repeated. The aim of this retrospective study was to assess value...
