Editorial comment on: molecular lymph node staging in bladder urothelial carcinoma: impact on survival.
The pathologic stage of the primary bladder tumour and the presence of lymph node metastasis are the most important determinants of survival in patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy. The optimal extent of the lymph node dissection for accurate staging, the curative potential of the method, and the prognosis of lymph node-positive disease after such treatment are matters of ...
متن کاملEditorial comment on: Characteristics of spontaneous activity in the bladder trigone.
BACKGROUND During bladder filling, the trigone contracts help keep the ureteral orifices open and the bladder neck shut. The trigone generates spontaneous activity as well as responding to neuromuscular transmitters, but the relationship between these phenomena are unclear. OBJECTIVES To characterise the cellular mechanisms that regulate and modify spontaneous activity in trigone smooth muscl...
متن کاملEDITORIAL Markers of Bladder Cancer
For the urologist who is treating a patient with a flat or papillary lesion of the bladder, the most important question is whether the lesion will invade and/or metastasize. Traditionally, the criteria used to make a prognosis have been the multiplicity, size, and grade of the tumor. However, since most initial tumors are single, small, and of low grade, these criteria have not been reliable. I...
متن کاملHuman Papillomavirus and Penile Cancer Editorial Comment
This study is very welcome as it demonstrates the high rate of human papillomavirus (HPV) associated with penile cancer. The detection rate of 75% approaches the rate of 90% seen in carcinoma in-situ. Other studies show lower HPV rates. It was unclear if this was due to differences in technique, such as immunohistochemistry or due to real variations in biology. Furthermore, the lower rate of HP...
