Two patients with primary tumors of bladder of mixed histologic composition (adenocarcinoma and transitional cell) are reported. Both patients were women and were treated with total cystectomy and urinary diversion. Histologic study of the specimens demonstrated cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis. The authors believe that both of these cases represent examples of mixed differentiation of primary tumors of bladder rather than separate malignancies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
