In the last two decades specific point mutations in oncogenes have been identified in urinary bladder cancers. Identification of these mutations in clinical samples (e.g.

Female sexual dysfunction in multiple sclerosis: Results of a survey among Dutch urologists and patients.

Aims: The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in one of the leading MS centers in the Netherlands.

Purpose: To study the short- and long-term outcomes of kidney transplantation in patients with a bladder augmentation or urinary diversion compared to patients with a kidney transplantation in a normal functional bladder.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2000 and March 2011, 13 patients received 16 grafts into a reconstructed urinary tract. We performed a retrospective case-control study and matched each patient to 4 controls for donor and recipient gender and year of transplantation.
