The aim of this narrative review is to provide adequate information on handling and reporting of the bladder cancer samples to improve the closely collaboration between pathologists and urologists. The main (but not exclusive) research tool used was PubMed and 87 references were selected and quoted in the text. We have considered handling of biopsies, transurethral resection (TUR), and cystectomy specimens to summarize the different methods of sampling and the related issues. Moreover, we considered and discussed the main prognostic factors, such as histological tumor type, grade, and stage of bladder cancer, that should be described in the pathological report. In addition, critical issues encountered in the interpretation of histological samples were discussed.
本叙述性综述的目的是提供有关膀胱癌样本处理和报告的充分信息,以改善病理学家和泌尿科医生之间的密切合作。主要(但非唯一)使用的研究工具是PubMed,文中选择并引用了87篇参考文献。我们考虑了活检、经尿道切除术(TUR)和膀胱切除术标本的处理,以总结不同的采样方法及相关问题。此外,我们考虑并讨论了病理报告中应描述的主要预后因素,如膀胱癌的组织学肿瘤类型、分级和分期。此外,还讨论了组织学样本解读中遇到的关键问题。
