Article Synopsis
- Xanthogranulomatous cystitis is a rare and benign chronic inflammatory condition that can resemble bladder cancer, leading to diagnostic confusion.
- A case study of a 54-year-old male with abdominal pain and blood in urine illustrates the condition's symptoms and challenges.
- Microscopic analysis revealed large foam histiocytes and specific markers, reinforcing the importance of distinguishing this condition from malignant tumors using immunohistochemical techniques.
Objective: To study the expressions of Integrinalpha2beta1 and CD133 in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) complicated by prostatitis and their significance.
Methods: Specimens were obtained from 56 BPH patients undergoing transvesical prostatectomy. Paraffin sections of the specimens were subjected to HE staining for pathological examination of inflammatory changes under the light microscope.
