Routine urine cytology has been performed for 809 male patients presenting with symptoms due to prostatic hypertrophy. In 6.42% of the cases, bladder tumor was revealed incidentally diagnosed by urine cytology. Cystoscopy and bladder biopsies were performed to confirm malignancy. The age of these patients ranged from 48-84 years (mean 65.2) and they complained mainly of irritative bladder symptoms. It is therefore strongly indicated that all patients with prostatic disease should have routine cytological examination of urine sediments.
对809名因前列腺肥大出现症状的男性患者进行了常规尿细胞学检查。在6.42%的病例中，尿细胞学偶然发现了膀胱肿瘤。进行了膀胱镜检查和膀胱活检以确诊恶性肿瘤。这些患者的年龄在48 - 84岁之间（平均65.2岁），他们主要抱怨膀胱刺激症状。因此，强烈建议所有前列腺疾病患者都应进行尿沉渣的常规细胞学检查。
