Granular cell tumors (GCT) are uncommon tumors that originate in any part of the body. They have been mainly observed in the skin and soft tissue of the head and neck, and are mostly benign tumors. Urinary bladder GCT are extremely rare tumors. The diagnosis of urinary bladder GCT needs high clinical suspicion by the urologist and the pathologist. We herein report a case of rare granular cell tumor of the urinary bladder in a young woman.

Construction and validation of prognosis and treatment outcome models based on plasma membrane tension characteristics in bladder cancer.
PeerJ
January 2025
Department of Urology, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China.
Background: Plasma membrane tension-related genes (MTRGs) are known to play a crucial role in tumor progression by influencing cell migration and adhesion. However, their specific mechanisms in bladder cancer (BLCA) remain unclear.
Methods: Transcriptomic, clinical and mutation data from BLCA patients were collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases.
The Autologous Fascial Pubovaginal Sling for Recurrent Stress Incontinence: A Retrospective Study.
Low Urin Tract Symptoms

Department of Urology, Institute of Urology (Laboratory of Reconstructive Urology), West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, People's Republic of China.
Aim: This study aimed to analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous fascial pubovaginal sling (AFPVS) surgery in treating recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI) following the failure of mid-urethral sling procedures.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of SUI patients who underwent AFPVS at our hospital between 2008 June and 2024 June following the failure of mid-urethral sling procedures. The analysis included basic information, surgical parameters, and postoperative complications.
Transcriptome-wide association study identifies genes associated with bladder cancer risk.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have detected several susceptibility variants for urinary bladder cancer, but how gene regulation affects disease development remains unclear. To extend GWAS findings, we conducted a transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) using PrediXcan to predict gene expression levels in whole blood using genome-wide genotype data for 6180 bladder cancer cases and 5699 controls included in the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). Logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted gene-level odds ratios (OR) per 1-standard deviation higher expression with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for bladder cancer risk.

Introduction: Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) can severely affect the urinary tract, leading to strictures and urine outflow obstruction, which pose significant risks to kidney function. Procedures involving the urinary mucosa often exacerbate these issues, making safe bladder emptying a major challenge. This study reviews surgical methods for managing urological complications in EB patients, with a focus on the Macedo procedure, which offers a promising alternative that avoids further bladder mucosa irritation and prevents disease exacerbation.

A male fetus at 20 weeks of gestation presented with severe bilateral hydroureteronephrosis and distended bladder due to a large ureterocele. A percutaneous ureterocele puncture at 21+3 weeks aimed to decompress the ureterocele, unclog the lower urinary tract, and prevent renal damage. Post-puncture, the ureterocele decompressed, with improved left hydronephrosis and a normal right kidney.
