Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors of the urinary tract: a clinicopathologic study of 46 cases, including a malignant example inflammatory fibrosarcoma and a subset associated with high-grade urothelial carcinoma.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the urinary tract, also termed postoperative spindle cell nodule, inflammatory pseudotumor, and pseudosarcomatous fibromyxoid tumor, is rare and in the past was believed to reflect diverse entities. We reviewed a series of 46 IMTs arising in the ureter, bladder, and prostate, derived primarily from a large consultation practice. There were 30 male and 16 females aged 3 to 89 years (mean 53.

The authors share their experiences with the substitution of the ureter for the appendix in three patients. In two of them the lengthy constriction of the pelvic portion of the ureter resulted from postirradiation alterations, in the other--from a gunshot wound of the lumbar area. The sufficient length and diameter of their appendix on a mobile mesentery allowed its being used for the substitution of the ureter.

Objective: The Memokath 051 is a thermo-expandable titanium-nickel spiral developed for long-term ureteral stenting. The aim of this study was to investigate the drainage and safety aspects of this stent.
Material And Methods: A total of 3-4 consecutive patients were included: 22 had benign strictures, five had post-irradiation strictures and seven had malignant strictures.
Further investigation of the response of human uroepithelium to low doses of cobalt-60 gamma radiation.

Explant cultures of normal human uroepithelium were established, exposed to a range of 60Co gamma-ray doses from 0.1-5 Gy and grown for 14 days. Expression of Myc, p53 and Bc12 proteins in the epithelial cells which grew from irradiated explants was measured in situ using immunocytochemistry.

Background: Radiation therapy plays a major role in the management of patients with either locally recurrent or metastatic carcinoma of the prostate.
Results: In 23 patients with isolated postprostatectomy local recurrences treated with doses of 60-65 Gy, 17 (74%) had tumor control, and 45% survived relapse-free for 5 years after treatment of the recurrence. Pelvic irradiation has been used to treat patients with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels after radical prostatectomy.
