SPECTRUM OF LESIONS IN HISTOPATHOLOGICAL BIOPSIES OF THE URINARY BLADDER – A HOSPITAL BASED STUDY
AbstractUrinary bladder lesions are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Majority of the bladder tumors are epithelial in origin with most of them accounting for urothelial/ transitional neoplasm. The present study was conducted to assess various types of urinary bladder lesions with regard to frequency, age and sex distribution and to describe the histopathological features of various lesions in the urinary biopsies along with grading of urothelial neoplasm. The present Hospital based cross sectional study was conducted in Assam Medical College and Hospital, Dibrugarh for a duration of 1 year (1st June 2017- 31st May 2018). Out of the 35 cases, the male: female ratio was 4:1, the Mean ± S.D of age of presentation was 60.31 ± 13.42 years. Out of 33 urothelial neoplasms, 14 (42.42%) cases were graded as high grade, 17 (51.52%) cases as low grade and one each of inverted papilloma and papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential. The early and definitive histopathological diagnosis with accurate grading and staging can aid in the management and prognosis of bladder tumors. Low grade carcinoma are associated with good prognosis as compared to high grade carcinoma.
