An Orthotopic Model of Murine Bladder Cancer
Published on: February 6, 2011
Abstract:
An unusual bladder tumor consisting of proliferating benign Brunn nests is described. The tumor occurred in a forty-five-year-old man who presented with hematuria. The tumor recurred in the same location one and one-half years later and again caused hematuria. The tumor is distinguished from inverted papilloma of the bladder.

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...
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...
