  • application of immunohistochemistry to the Genitourinary System prostate urinary bladder testis and kidney
    Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2009
    Co-Authors: Kai H Hammerich, Gustavo Ayala, Thomas M Wheeler
    Abstract:

    Abstract Context.—The variety of morphologic patterns of different entities of the Genitourinary tract can present a diagnostic dilemma for the pathologist. This is especially true in cases of mimics of cancer, a cancer of unknown primary, or poorly differentiated tumors, in which it is hard to assign histogenesis needed to plan the correct therapy for the patient. Immunohistochemistry offers a better capacity than hematoxylin-eosin staining alone to differentiate human tissue types. Also, in the past decades, several techniques had been developed to differentiate between benign and malignant processes with morphologic overlap. By using immunohistochemistry in selected cases, the rate of false-negative and false-positive diagnoses can be reduced, and some patients are afforded the opportunity to get more specific or effective therapy as a result. Objective.—For each subgroup of Genitourinary System tumors, common diagnostic problems are reviewed, and immunohistochemical markers useful in addressing these ...

  • male Genitourinary System lymphoma a clinicopathological analysis
    National journal of andrology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Chunfang Zhang, Hangbo Zhou
    Abstract:

    Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features and immunophenotypes of male Genitourinary System lymphoma. Methods We retrospectively studied the histopathological characteristics and immunohistochemical markers of 35 cases of male Genitourinary System lymphoma, and reviewed the relevant literature. Results The 35 patients of male Genitourinary System lymphoma were aged from 4 to 83 (mean 56.5) years, 28 (80%) of them > or = 50 years. Twenty-eight cases (80%) involved the testis, 3 (8.6%) the prostate, 1 (2.9%) the spermatic cord, 1 the seminal vesicles, 1 the penis and 1 the epididymis. Histologically, 22 cases (62.9%) were diffused large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), 6 (17.1%) mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, 4 (11.4%) Burkitt lymphoma, 2 (5.7%) peripheral T cell lymphoma, and 1 (2.9%) plasmacytoma. Conclusion Male Genitourinary System lymphomas are rare tumors clinically, which occur more often in the elderly. The majority of them are B cell lymphomas, of which the most common is DLBCL, followed by MALT lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma. T cell lymphoma and plasmacytoma are rare. The diagnosis of male Genitourinary System lymphoma relies on the histopathology, and immunohistochemical markers are of high value for its definite diagnosis, classification and differential diagnosis.

  • ultrasonographic detection of Genitourinary System malformation in fetus
    Hainan Medical Journal, 2011
    Co-Authors: Qin Linglin
    Abstract:

    Objective To investigate the clinical value of ultrasonography for fetal Genitourinary System malformation.Methods The clinical data of 28 cases of fetal Genitourinary System malformation diagnosed by ultrasonography from October 2006 to October 2001 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Of the 28 cases,18 were with hydronephrosis,5 with multicystic dysplastic kidney,2 with agenesis of kidney,2 with duplicate kidney,and 1 with ectopic kidney.Conclusion Ultrasonography can be used to diagnoze fetal Genitourinary System malformation non-invasively and accurately,which provides significant information for clinical treatment.
