Stereotypes of Structural Modification of the Urothelium in Various Diseases of the Urinary Bladder and Prostate

  • General Pathology and Pathophysiology

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Structural modification of the urothelium was studied in various diseases of the urinary bladder and prostate, including urinary bladder cancer, vibration cystopathy, chronic prostatitis, benign prostate hyperplasia, and chronic cystitis. The general phenomena of changes in urinary bladder epithelium were atrophy, squamous metaplasia, and instability of the urothelium (focal atrophy, dysplasia, hyperplasia, and metaplasia). This phenomenon can be interpreted as a morphological marker for cancer risk.
