Introduction Bladder cancer is the most common malignancy in elderly people and most bladder cancers are transitional cell carcinomas (TCC). Bladder pathology is usually investigated visually by cystoscopy and this technique can represent different conditions ranging from simple inflammation to flat CIS. However, biopsies must be taken from the suspected area to obtain diagnostic information. T...

Background: Gallbladder cancer is the most common malignant tumor of biliary tract. The majority cases are adenocarcinoma (AC). Pure squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) gallbladder accounts only 3% neoplasm this organ.
 Methods: medical records all patients who underwent cholecystectomy and specimen sent to Pathology Department Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner, in last five years were retro...

  Background and Objectives: Biological scaffold resources composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) have been shown to make easy the practical remodeling of various tissues in both animal and human studies. The goal of current study was to make sheet form of ECM from sheep’s urinary bladder. Methods: ECM was extracted from Sheep’s urinary bladder according to standard method. Scanning electron ...

although bladder leiomyoma is rare, this is the most frequent nonepithelial benign tumor of the bladder. symptoms and treatment depend on location and size of the lesion as well. the optional treatment is a total enucleation or partial cystectomy, although in biopsy proved cases watchful waiting is an option, surgery should be considered as the tumor grows or symptoms are observed. the etiology...

The use of bovine amnion in the urinary tract for reconstructive purposes following ablative surgery in cases of trauma, cancer or infection is now a common practice in urological surgery. To evaluate urinary bladder reconstruction with bovine amniotic membrane (BAM), ten healthy mongrel dogs of either sex weighing 10-40 kg were used. The animals were randomly divided into two groups of fi...

Background: Carcinoid tumors usually originate from the enterochromaffin cells located in gastrointestinal tract and bronchopulmonary system. They may rarely arise in the urinary bladder, where this can be eventually miscued as any other commoner bladder neoplasms. The current study was conducted to connote an uncommon clinicopathological presentation by a carcinoid tu...

the treatment of choice for bladder tumors is tur, but because of high incidence of recurrence in these tumors, various treatments are suggested. in one study, 32 patients involved with superficial t.c.c. of bladder selected and divided in two equal groups. in the first group, after t.u.r, 10 million iu of a alpha-interferon was injected into the bladder through a catheter and in the other grou...

abstract   synchronous upper urinary tract tumor and superficial bladder tumor are uncommon. this is a report of a 62- year- old man presented with episode of painless gross hematuria and flank pain. we worked him up and found a left renal mass and bladder lesion. he underwent nephrectomy and tur-bt, and the pathology report of both showed a high grade urothelial transitional cell carcinoma. th...
