...Philip H. ter Meulen; John P.F.A. Heesakkers; Rudi A. Janknegt Objective: To study the feasibility of bladder autoaugmentation in patients with motor urge incontinence. Patients and Methods: The clinical and urodynamic data of 5 patients were analyzed before and after treatment. All patients...

...J.C. Smith; M. Dunn; G.M. Ardran Studies of bladder blood flow during hydrostatic distention using radioactive clearance techniques and progressive diminution in blood flow as bladder pressure rises. At systolic blood pressure blood flow is minimal. Prolonged hydrostatic distention has been used...

...B. Mauroy The development of new imaging techniques has improved our knowledge of the cross-sectional anatomy of the pelvis and thereby our understanding of the bladder’s response to prostatic obstruction. It is now known that changes in the bladder are intimately linked to the development...

...R. Buttyan; M.-W. Chen; R.M. Levin In humans, chronic bladder outlet obstruction resulting from benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) can induce severe and irreversible upper urinary tract changes, especially in the bladder. BPH can be mimicked in rabbits by artificially creating a partial obstruction...

...R.K. Lawson Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition among older men. Although surgery is the most effective treatment for patients with severe symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction, many patients with less severe symptoms will benefit from pharmacological intervention. Traditional...

...R.M. Levin; S.S. Levin; Y. Zhao; R. Buttyan Bladder dysfunction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a major affliction associated with ageing. As the disease slowly progresses, the bladder changes from a state of compensation to decompensation, in which there are severe, irreversible...

...J.J. Wyndaele The sensation of bladder filling during cystometry and the sensory thresholds towards electrical stimulation in the bladder and urethra were determined in a group of 35 children and young adults with enuresis nocturna and in 28 similar patients with other urodynamic dysfunctions...

...G. Breda; W. Artibani; P. Vancini; A. Lotto; A. Brunetti; G. Battaglisa A case of urinary malakoplakia involving both ureters and the bladder is presented. Ultrastructural data relating to the ureteric lesion are illustrated. Pale, dark and intermediate cells were involved in the pathological...

...Rolf Pompeius; Rolf Ekroth Condyloma acuminatum very seldom affects the urinary bladder, but if it does conservative treatment has been considered of little value and cystourethrectomy will eventually be required. A case with urethrovesical condyloma is presented, where repeated transurethral...

...P. Strohmenger; H. Wenzel An experimental oedema of the bladder wall was produced by electric coagulation current in 130 rats. The amount of oedema was calculated by determination of the difference between the weight of the freshly excised wet bladder and that after drying to constant weight. Thus...

...J. Aubert; B. Dore; P. Villemonteix; G. Touchard As part of urinary tract transitional cell carcinoma, inverted papilloma deserves a particular place owing to its histologic features, rarity and prognosis. These tumors are usually located in the bladder and their location in the upper urinary tract...

...N. Javadpour; R. Guirguis We have studied the role of combined measurements of tumor collagenase- stimulating factor (TCSF) and tumor autocrine motility factor (TAMF) in 83 first morning voids and 24-hour specimens in patients with bladder and renal cancer and control subjects. TCSF and TAMF were...
