The use of resin-sprayed thin paper for urinary bladder regeneration.

Urinary bladder reconstruction using resin-sprayed thin paper was performed on four patients with either bladder cancer or tuberculosis. The paper was transurethrally removed after the bladder regenerated. Satisfactory results were obtained in three patients; the patient with a long standing tuberculous cicatrical contracted bladder, however, failed to regenerate the bladder with an adequate capacity.
