Background: Urinary bladder diseases constitute an important source of clinical signs and symptoms which are more disabling than lethal. The prevalence of bladder tumor in developed countries is approximately six times higher compared with that in developing countries. The aim of this study was to find out various lesions in urinary bladder biopsies and its frequencies.Materials and Methods: This was a five year retrospective study from January 2008 to December 2013, carried out at B&B Hospital, Lalitpur. All the relevant data of 324 patients who had undergone cystoscopic biopsy of urinary bladder were included in the study. All blocks were retrieved and stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin stain and examined under light microscope.Results: The spectrum of pathological lesions included inflammations and tumors. Non-neoplastic lesions were predominant (61.11%) followed by Transitional cell tumors accounted for 124 cases (38.27%). Non-neoplastic lesions comprises of cystitis and tuberculosis. Papillary urothelial neoplasms was the most common tumors seen in this study with 55 low grade, and 54 high grade Papillary urothelial carcinoma according to recent WHO grading. Single cases each of adenocarcinoma and paraganglioma were diagnosed.Conclusion: Cystoscopic biopsies help in the early diagnosis and treatment of various bladder lesions. Analysis of cystoscopic biopsies was done to ascertain the type of urinary bladder lesions in our country.Journal of Pathology of Nepal (2015) Vol. 5, 717-719

Background:  Urinary bladder lesions are the main source of significant clinical symptoms which are more disabling than lethal. Bladder tumors constitute one of the most common urological pathology. Urothelial carcinoma accounts for 90% of all primary tumors of the bladder. This study aimed to determine the frequency of different types of lesions of the urinary bladder and to determine the grade and stage of urothelial tumors.Materials and Methods: This is a 2 years cross sectional study of cystoscopic biopsies carried out in the Department of Pathology, Medicare National Hospital and Research Centre, Kathmandu, Nepal.Results:  Out of 87 cases, 58 (66.67%) cases were neoplastic lesions and 29(33.33%) cases were non- neoplastic lesions. Majority of neoplastic lesions 96.55% were urothelial (transitional cell) tumors comprising predominantly of low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma 50.91%. Muscle invasion was seen only in high grade papillary urothelial carcinomas.Conclusion: Among bladder tumors low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma is the most common.

Introduction: Bladder tumours constitute one of the most common urological conditions. Urothelial(transitional cell) carcinoma accounts for 90% of all primary tumours of the bladder. These tumoursare an important cause of morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to present thehistopathological patterns of urothelial tumours and to determine the grade and stage of thesetumours.Methods: This is a 3 year descriptive study of urothelial tumours carried out in the Departmentof Pathology, Patan Academy of Health Sciences (PAHS), Lalitpur, Nepal. Data of all cystoscopicbiopsies collected during this period were analyzed.Results: Of the 83 urinary bladder tumours, 81 (97.59%) cases were urothelial (transitional cell)tumours. Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) was the most common bladder tumour which was seenin 67 (80.72%) cases. Thirty two (47.76%) cases of TCC were low grade while 35 (52.24%) were highgrade. Forty three (64.18%) cases of TCC were superficial or in early stage (pTa and pT1) while 24(35.82%) showed muscle invasion.Conclusions: Transitional cell carcinoma was the most common bladder cancer. Most of thesetumours were high grade. A large percentage of high grade carcinomas presented with muscleinvasion. Pathological grade and muscle invasion are the most valuable prognostic predictorsof survival. The importance of including smooth muscle in the biopsy specimens needs to beemphasized._______________________________________________________________________________________Keywords: cancer; high grade; low grade; transitional tumour; urinary bladder._______________________________________________________________________________________

Objective: The purpose of this study was to retrospectively analyze the demographic characteristics of patients with central giant cell granulomas (CGCGs) and peripheral giant cell granulomas (PGCGs) in Iranian population.Methods: The data were obtained from records of 1019 patients with CGCG and PGCG of the jaws referred to our department between 1972 and 2010. This 38-year retrospective study was based on existing data. Information regarding age distribution, gender, location of the lesion and clinical signs and symptoms was documented. Results: A total of 1019 patients were affected GCGLs including 435 CGCGs and 584 PGCGs during the study. The mean age was 28.91 ± 18.16. PGCGs and CGCGs had a peak of occurrence in the first and second decade of life respectively. A female predominance was shown in CGCG cases (57.70%), whereas PGCGs were more frequent in males (50.85%). Five hundred and ninety-eight cases of all giant cell lesions (58.7 %) occurred in the mandible. Posterior mandible was the most frequent site for both CGCG and PGCG cases. The second most common site for PGCG was posterior maxilla (21%), whereas anterior mandible was involved in CGCG (19.45%). The majority of patients were asymptomatic. Conclusions: In contrast to most of previous studies PGCGs occur more common in the first decade and also more frequently in male patients. Although the CGCGs share some histopathologic similarities with PGCGs, differences in demographic features may be observed in different populations which may help in the diagnosis and management of these lesions.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.15(2) 2016 p.220-223

The role of infection in the etiology of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is poorly understood. Large-scale epidemiological descriptions of the histology and microbiology of BRONJ are not found in the literature. Herein, we present a systematic review of BRONJ histology and microbiology (including demographics, immunocompromised associations, clinical signs and symptoms, disease severity, antibiotic and surgical treatments, and recovery status) validating that infection should still be considered a prime component in the multifactorial disease.
