Abstract A one year old boy presented with dribbling of urine since birth. Ultrasonography showed bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureter suggestive of posterior urethral valves. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In the majority of patients with bladder polyps, symptoms are not present in the early stages. However, a common symptom is the presence of blood in the urine. [belmarrahealth.com]

  […] scanning with 18 F-labelled deoxyglucose.[ 8 ] Intravenous cholecystography Intravenous cholecystography is a safe technique, but gallbladder polyps do not become sufficiently opaque.[ 1 ] Transpapillary approach Percutaneous transhepatic fine-needle aspiration [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Suprapubic Pain

  The presentation is of a child with intermittent haematuria exacerbated by physical/sports activity associated with or without suprapubic pain. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  ●Suprapubic pain is usually a sign of a locally advanced tumor that is either directly invading the perivesical soft tissues and nerves or obstructing the bladder outlet and causing urinary retention. [es.slideshare.net]

• Hematuria

  Every year or so since then, urinalysis at physicals has shown microscopic hematuria. It was explained to me that some people just have red blood cells in their urine which doesn't amount to anything. [medhelp.org]

  Hematuria — The most common presenting symptom is hematuria, which is typically intermittent, gross, painless, and present throughout micturition. (See "Etiology and evaluation of hematuria in adults".) [es.slideshare.net]

  MATERIAL AND METHODS: A 14-year-old boy presented at the Urology Department of "Elpis" Hospital complaining of painless macroscopic hematuria during the last six months. The patient did not report previous urinary tract disorders. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Dysuria

  Proteinuria persisted for 20 months and was followed by dysuria and the discovery of an inflammatory polyp of the bladder. The proteinuria decreased 1 month after excision of the polyp, and disappeared during the following year. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This can very well be appreciated in these images. calculus in female urethra This female patient complained of dysuria for which she underwent routine sonography. [ultrasound-images.com]

  CLINICAL PRESENTATION — Patients with bladder cancer classically present with painless hematuria (grossly visible or microscopic), although irritative voiding symptoms (frequency, urgency, dysuria) can be the initial manifestation. [es.slideshare.net]

  Signs and symptoms Clinical manifestations of bladder cancer are as follows: Painless gross hematuria - Approximately 80-90% of patients; classic presentation Irritative bladder symptoms (eg, dysuria, urgency, frequency of urination) - 20-30% of patients [emedicine.medscape.com]

  Associated symptoms are the usual ones encountered in cases of bladder pathology, such as hematuria, frequency or dysuria. [nature.com]

• Macroscopic Hematuria

  MATERIAL AND METHODS: A 14-year-old boy presented at the Urology Department of "Elpis" Hospital complaining of painless macroscopic hematuria during the last six months. The patient did not report previous urinary tract disorders. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The workup is directed at exclusion of malignancy. 90% of bladder carcinomas are transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), 75% of which are papillary, 25% are infiltrative. [med-ed.virginia.edu]

No further workups were done at that time. Every year or so since then, urinalysis at physicals has shown microscopic hematuria. It was explained to me that some people just have red blood cells in their urine which doesn't amount to anything. [medhelp.org]

Gallbladder cancer is often discovered incidentally during a workup for gallstone disease, and about 50% of gallbladder cancer cases are diagnosed incidentally in cholecystectomy specimens. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Treatment is surgical with good long-term prognosis. Not much is written in literature about benign fibroepithelial bladder polyp. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Excellent treatments exist for all stages of bladder cancer, and thus timely evaluation and treatment are important. [everydayhealth.com]

Latest treatment for bladder cancer in New York City with offices in Manhattan midtown and UES and Brooklyn. Modern options including videocystoscopy, in-office biopsy, BCG and mytomycin C treatment. [newyorkurologyspecialists.com]

If the biopsy comes back stating that the polyp is cancerous, cancer treatment will be offered. As said, bladder polyp surgery is generally performed through a cystoscope and bladder polyp treatment is only available if the polyps are malignant. [healthadel.com]

Treatment is surgical with good long-term prognosis. Not much is written in literature about benign fibroepithelial bladder polyp. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The prognosis is poor, and the majority of patients have unresectable disease. [hpblondon.com]

Though it is more prevalent in men, studies have shown that women are more likely to present more advanced tumors and have a worse prognosis than men at almost every stage of the disease. [bcan.org]

The etiology was inadvertent thermal injury of the ureteroneocystostomy incurred during the procedure. After attempted percutaneous management, definitive open repair resulted in a return of allograft function to baseline. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The etiology in these cases is thought to be multifactorial, potentially involving exposure to numerous carcinogens. Arsenic exposure may be a factor in the development of bladder cancer. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prevention Since having benign bladder polyps is strongly associated with smoking, it is best to reduce or quit smoking completely to prevent recurrence. [healthyliving.azcentral.com]

Not smoking is the most important thing a person can to do help prevent bladder cancer. If you already have bladder cancer, you should still stop smoking because bladder cancer often recurs, and smoking could bring about a recurrence. [news-medical.net]

Sometimes, it is necessary to remove them only to confirm that they are non cancerous or to prevent the disconcerting but not strictly dangerous symptoms associated with these polyps, i.e. painful urine or blood in urine. [womenhealthzone.com]
