Article Synopsis
  • Bilharzia-associated bladder cancer (BAC) is prevalent in areas with urinary schistosomiasis, but its genetic characteristics are not well studied compared to non-bilharzia bladder cancer.
  • Researchers examined genetic changes in 20 bladder lesions from Sudanese patients to identify chromosomal imbalances.
  • The study found several chromosomal changes common to both BAC and non-bilharzia cancers, but noted a more frequent loss of 9p in BAC, indicating potential differences in their cytogenetic profiles.
