OBJECTIVES In select female patients, bladder reconstruction following cystectomy will provide a better quality of life and self-image. We reviewed our results with ileocolonic orthotopic neobladders in female patients undergoing cystectomy for bladder cancer. Impact of pathologic stage on disease outcome, urinary continence results and surgical technique are described. Because of the relative ...

Lymphoepithelial - like carcinoma, is rarely recognized in the urinary bladder and less commonly occurs with papillary transitional cell carcinoma i.e. mixed pattern. Also, less uncommon is the occurrence of carcinoma in situ changes in the adjacent urothelium of these tumors. Here, a case of lymphoepithelial – like carcinoma and papillary transitional cell carcinoma associated with carci...

discussion bladder over-distention and spontaneous bladder rupture, although very rare in ham/tsp, should be considered in a differential diagnosis of bladder rupture, especially in patients with a history of htlv1. introduction spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare manifestation of hyporeflexic bladder due to ham/tsp( human t-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (htlv1) associated myelopathy/tropica...

μalakoplakia is a rare inflammatory condition of the urogenital tract. the most frequently affected organ is urinary bladder. this condition has features of a granulomatous inflammation, the pathogenesis of which is not well understood. in this study, we presented a case of urinary bladder malakoplakia associated with advanced obstructive uropathy and renal failure.

primary ureteral neoplasms are very rare and its prevalence is less than 1% of all genitourinary neoplasms. we report a symptomatic giant ureteral fibro epithelial polyp in adult women presenting as a bladder mass which was resected ureteroscopically and reported at the first time from iran. cystoscopy is growing use in the treatment of urinary tract lesions cystoscopy can be used in large lesi...

Background: Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignant genitourinary diseases worldwide. Despite advances in surgical technique, medical oncology and radiation therapy, cure of invasive tumors remains elusive for patients with late stage disease. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies are needed to improve the response rates with regard to recurrence, invasion and metastasis. Objective: ...

Bladder cancer is the most frequent kind of urinary tract cancer. We will look at recent breakthroughs in diagnosis and treatment this illness review. The significant tools follow-up bladder are cystoscopy urine cytology. Several options have been examined, either to minimise frequency or increase its sensitivity for tumour identification. Urine-based markers point-of-care testing examples this...

Bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men in the United States, after prostate, lung, and colorectal cancer and the 10th most common cancer in women [1]. From 1985-2000, the number of patients diagnosed annually with bladder cancer has increased by 33%. The recurrence rate for superficial transitional cell cancer of the bladder is high and as many as 80% of patients have at least o...

RATIONALE Urinary bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men and the eighth in women, being an important public health issue. OBJECTIVE to assess the outcome of patients with urinary bladder cancer treated in an oncologic center. METHODS Medical files of 155 patients (132M/ 23F) with urinary bladder cancer treated between 2006 and 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The median a...

There is limited evidence for the carcinogenicity of p‐chloro-o-toluidine from epidemiological studies in humans. Three cohort studies found high relative risks for urinary-bladder cancer among workers exposed to p-chloro-o-toluidine; however, confounding by coexposure to other potential urinary-bladder carcinogens could not be ruled out. Documented human exposure to p‐chloro-o-toluidine has oc...
