Article/Chapter Title: | Pathology |
Abstract: | Histopathological evaluation of bladder lesions represents one of the more challenging areas of pathology. In part, this reflects both the plasticity of the urothelium and the variety of processes that can affect the bladder. The frequent lack of objective ancillary markers to confirm or exclude a diagnosis contributes to the additional complexity to the analysis of bladder biopsies or resections. In this Chapter, we will outline common lesions that affect the bladder and highlight various challenges in their diagnosis. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021. |
