Significant Correlation between Chromosomal Aberration and Nuclear Morphology in Urothelial Carcinoma

Significant Correlation between Chromosomal Aberration and Nuclear Morphology in Urothelial Carcinoma

We aimed to identify whether there is any correlation between chromosomal/genetic changes, nuclear morphology and the histological grade of urothelial carcinomas of the urinary bladder. Morphometry and multicolour fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) techniques were applied to 250 cells in five low-grade cases and 350 cells in seven high-grade cases of urothelial carcinoma. Compared with l...

Role of FGFR3 in Urothelial Carcinoma

Background and Objective: This study was undertaken to analyze the immunohistochemical expression of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR3) in urothelial carcinoma and correlate its expression with the pathological stage, recurrence and other clinicopathological parameters. Material and Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken on paraffin blocks o...

The Role of Chromosomal Aberration in Childhood Leukemia

Microcystic urothelial carcinoma: morphology, immunohistochemistry and clinical behaviour.

AIMS To report on the clinicopathological features of 20 cases of microcystic urothelial bladder carcinoma. METHODS AND RESULTS The extent of microcystic component varied from 50-100% of the specimens. The cysts were round-oval and of varying sizes; the periphery of large cysts was frequently punctuated by many smaller cysts. The cysts were lined by urothelial, low columnar cells or by a sing...

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN SPERM MORPHOLOGY AND MOTILITY IN FERTILE AND INFERTILE MEN

The swim-up procedure was used to collect a sperm fraction with improved motility and normal morphology from fertile and infertile semen samples. The untreated and swim-up fractions were analyzed with the Hamilton-Thorn Motility Analyser. Comparisons were made to see the effect of this sperm selection technique on sperm motility and morphology. They were then examined by transmission elect...
