Urinary Bladder01:23

Urinary Bladder

The urinary bladder is a hollow, muscular sac that temporarily stores urine before it is expelled from the body. It can hold approximately 600 mL of urine prior to micturition. The bladder is retroperitoneal and located behind the pubic symphysis in the pelvic floor.
In males, the bladder is situated in front of the rectum, while in females, it is positioned anterior to the vagina and uterus. The bladder floor contains an inverted triangular area called the trigone, defined by the two ureteric...
Ureters01:22

Ureters

The ureters are retroperitoneal tubes located on either side of the vertebral column. They are responsible for transporting urine from each kidney to the urinary bladder. These tubes have thick walls and are approximately 25-30 cm long. Their diameter is around 10 mm at the renal pelvis, gradually narrowing to 1 mm as the ureter obliquely enters the posterior bladder wall through the ureteric orifices. The shape of these orifices is slit-like, which helps to prevent urine backflow toward the...

Anatomy of the Genitourinary System II: Bladder and Urethra

The lower urinary system consists of the urinary bladder and urethra, which are essential in storing and expelling urine from the body. Together with the internal and external sphincters, these structures work together to regulate urination effectively.Anatomy of the BladderThe urinary bladder is a muscular, stretchable organ behind the pubic bone and in front of the rectum. In females, the bladder is positioned anterior to the vagina and inferior to the uterus, while in males, it is located...
Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition01:27

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease V: Surgical Management01:21

Inflammatory Bowel Disease V: Surgical Management

Surgical interventions for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are essential in managing symptoms and addressing complications. The selection of surgical procedures is contingent upon the specific conditions and complications that stem from these illnesses.
Here are some common surgical interventions for IBD:

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Polyps can develop in continent catheterizable bladder channels, affecting 20% of patients. While benign, these polyps can cause symptoms and recur after endoscopic resection, highlighting a need for further study.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Continent catheterizable bladder channels are surgically created diversions.
  • Polyps within these channels are uncommon but can cause complications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the incidence and characteristics of polyps in continent catheterizable bladder channels.
  • To describe patient outcomes following polyp management.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of patients with continent catheterizable bladder channels.
  • Analysis of polyp development, symptoms, treatment, and recurrence over 16 years.

Main Results:

  • 20% of patients (11/55) developed polyps in their bladder channels.
  • 55% of patients with polyps were symptomatic; all improved with endoscopic resection.
  • 45% of polyps recurred after resection; all were benign inflammatory granulomatous tissue.

Conclusions:

  • This is the first series reporting polyp incidence in bladder catheterizable channels.
  • Symptomatic polyps can occur in these channels, with unknown long-term implications.
