[Clinico-anatomical studies of patients with sclerosis of the bladder neck]

Clinico-anatomical studies were carried out in patients with sclerosis of the bladder neck. Specimens for histologic examination were obtained by transurethral resection or transvesical excision of the bladder neck. Histologic changes indicative of chronic nonspecific inflammatory process were found in the majority of cases. The most seldom finding was hypertrophy of the bladder neck muscular tissue.
