    Summary

    Bladder amyloidosis was successfully treated using transurethral resection (TUR) combined with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) bladder instillation. This combination therapy effectively cleared residual lesions with no reported side effects, offering a promising treatment for bladder amyloidosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pathology
    • Biochemistry

    Background:

    • Bladder amyloidosis is a rare condition characterized by amyloid fibril deposition in the bladder wall.
    • Diagnosis typically involves biopsy and histological examination.

    Observation:

    • A case of bladder amyloidosis diagnosed via bladder epithelium biopsy.
    • Amyloid fibrils were confirmed using polarization and electron microscopy.

    Findings:

    • The patient underwent transurethral resection (TUR).
    • Residual lesions resolved completely after 4 months of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) bladder instillations (12 sessions).
    • No adverse side effects were observed during or after treatment.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Combined TUR and DMSO bladder instillation presents an effective therapeutic strategy for bladder amyloidosis.
  • This approach may offer a safe and successful alternative to other treatments.
