A Case Report of Inflammatory Pseudosarcoma of the Urinary Bladder

A case of inflammatory pseudosarcoma of the urinary bladder in a 35 year-old Japanese male is presented. This benign lesion can easily be mistaken for spindle cell sarcoma since it consists of rhabdomyoblast like elongated strap cells showing infiltrative growth, and whether it is benign or malignant is difficult to determine by microscopic examination. In this case, spindle cell proliferation extended among bundles of the superficial muscle layer. However, no abnormal mitoses, severe nuclear atypia or cellular pleomorphism could be seen, thus indicating inflammatory pseudosarcoma. Although the lesion was not completely resected, no recurrent disease has been clinically observed for two years following transurethral resection. Urologists and surgical pathologists must be able to detect this lesion in order to avoid unnecessary surgical procedures. Acta Pathol Jpn 42: 760 765,1992.     

Changes in bladder function following a surgical alteration in outflow resistance

The changes in bladder function occurring after a surgical alteration in bladder outflow resistance were studied in 20 males undergoing transurethral prostatectomy (TURP) and in 20 females undergoing an endoscopic bladder neck suspension (EBNS). Serial cystometrograms (CMG) were performed before operation, and on alternate days after spontaneous micturition was re-established, for 5 days in the males and for 21 days in the females. CMGs were repeated at 3 months and 1 year after operation. After TURP voiding pressures (P_det) fell rapidly from a mean of 118 cm H₂O before operation to 57 cm H₂O at 5 days, with an increase in flow rate during this time from 10.5 ml/s to 24 ml/s. Detrusor instability that had been present in 14 patients resolved within 2 days in 12. There was no further significant urodynamic change over the 1-year study period. After EBNS, there was an early rise in voiding pressure (P_det rose from 26 cm H₂O before operation to 42 cm H₂O at 3 days). This continued to increase up to 21 days particularly in those patients with initial large residuals. Three patients developed detrusor instability. Flow rates were greatly reduced at first (27 ml/s before operation and 13 ml/s at 3 days), and gradually increased in line with voiding pressures, yet were still diminished 1 year after operation. The urodynamic changes following a reduction in bladder outflow resistance by TURP are immediate and sustained and unlikely to be the result of structural changes within the bladder wall. EBNS produces an increase in outflow resistance and it can be several weeks before balanced voiding is achieved, with significantly increased detrusor pressures needed to achieve complete bladder emptying at a reduced flow rate.

Correlation of Nuclear Morphometry and Immunostaining for p53 and Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen in Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Bladder

Background :
In an attempt to determine the biological significance of nuclear morphometric findings, measurements of mean nuclear volume (MNV) and nuclear roundness factor (NRF) were compared to the immunoreactivityof p53 expression and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in human bladder cancer.
Methods :
MNV and NRF were measured using stereological methods. Expression of p53 and PCNA were determined by immunohistochemical staining. Specimens from 111 patients with previously untreated bladder cancer were analyzed.
Results :
The mean MNV was 235.8 ± 1 33.6 μm³ for the 81 patients with p53-labeling index (LI) less than 10% and 337.2 ± 141.0 μn³ for the 30 patients with p53 LI greater than 10% (P = 0.008). There was Resign if icant correlation between NRF and expression of p53. The mean MNV was 220.1 ± 1 20.5 μm³ for the 67 patients with PCNA LI less than 28% (the mean value of PCNA LI) and 328.9 ± 149.2 μm³ in 44 patients with PCNA LI greater than 28% (P= 0.0001). The mean NRF was 80.7 ± 4.2 for the 67 patients with PCNA LI less than 28%, and 82.3 ± 3.4 for the 44 patients with PCNA LI more than 28% (P= 0.04). Conclusion: Nuclear morphometric findings may reflect the proliferative potential of cancer eel Is of the bladder, as indicated by findings of immunostaining for p53 and PCNA.     

膀胱肿瘤组织中端粒酶催化亚基和c-myc的表达

目的 研究膀胱肿瘤组织中端粒酶催化亚基(hTERT)和c-myc间的表达及关系。方法 采用逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)法对27例膀胱肿瘤组织、16例癌旁组织和16例正常膀胱粘膜同时测定hTERT和c-myc表达,分析两指标在3种组织的表达差异和相关性。结果 TCC组织hTERT和c-myc的表达阳性率分别为100.0％(27/27)和66.7％(18/27);癌旁组织两指标的阳性率均为 37.5％,而正常膀胱粘膜分别为 0和 25.0％;hTERT和c-myc两指标在膀胱肿瘤组织中的阳性表达有相关性(P<0.01)。结论 hTERT较c-myc作为TCC的诊断指标更灵敏和特异;两指标在TCC中的阳性表达具有相关性。
