Clinical Observation on the Bladder Tumor / 대한비뇨기과학회지

A Clinical observation was made on the patients with bladder tumor admitted to the Department of Urology, Kyung Hee University Hospital during the period from January, 1973 to December,1979 Followings were the results: 1. During the period, 57 cases of bladder tumor among the 1716 total number of in-patients were hospitalized, giving a incidence rate of 3.3%. 2. Age distribution was between 4 and 85 years, the highest incidence rate was in the age group of 60-69 years. 3. Hematuria was the most common symptom occurred in 87.7%, frequency in 61.1%. dysuria in 52.6% and the others. 4. Among the 53 cases performed I.V.P., 79.3% of cases revealed normal upper tract, filling defect in the bladder was observed in 69.8% of them. 5. Associated diseases with bladder tumor were B. P. H. or B. N. C. each in 12.3% and U. T. I. in 31. 6%. 6. Pathologic examination was possible on 49 cases, transitional cell carcinoma occupied 44 cases, in 89.8% and Grade I was found most frequently. 7. 14 cases were studied by the non-invasive, simple method as computerized tomography: the effective staging procedure in invasion of bladder wall itself could be diagnosed very helpfully but distant metastasis not diagnosed very exactly, comparison with the operation stage. 8. 47 cases were treated, T. U. R. or T. U. C. were tried initially in 21 cases.

Clinical Observation on Endoscopy / 대한비뇨기과학회지

A clinical observation was made on one thousand and seventeen cases of endoscopy, performed in the Department of Urology, Kyung Hee University Hospital during the period from January 1, 1977 to December 31, 1978. The results are summarized as follows. 1) During the period, of 5,480 patients visited, 987 patients were examined endoscopically, giving a rate of 18%. 2) The age was ranged from 3 to 91 years old and the most favorable age was in 30 to 49 years old in 49.9%.

Prolapsing Ureterocele / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Ureterocele is a congenital cystic dilatation of the lower end of the ureter, the outer lining of which is bladder mucosa and the inner surface mucosa of ureter.

Intrascrotal Dermoid Cyst / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Dermoid cyst is a benign cystic teratoma consisting of 3 germ cell origin tissues with predominant ectodermal origin and most commonly found in the ovary but rare in the scrotum.

In one case, the cyst developed from the testis and in another from the paratesticular tissue.

A Clinical Observation on Injuries of Genitourinary Tract / 대한비뇨기과학회지

A clinical observation was made on the injuries of genitourinary tract of the in-patients in the Department of Urology, Kyung Hee University Hospital during the period from July 1, 1972 to June 30. 1977. The following results were obtained. 1) Of 689 cases hospitalized, 61 cases were injuries of genitourinary tract, giving a rate of 8.9%. 2) The age ranged from 3 to 70 years and most favorable age was in from 20 to 39 years for 47.6%. The sex ratio, male to female, was 11.2 : 1. 3) The urethra was involved most frequently in 39.3 %, the kidney in 32.8 %, the bladder in 14.8 %, the external genitalia in 11.5 % and the ureter in only one case which was caused by grnecologic operation. 4) Traffic accident was most common cause of the injury in 39.3% and the next was kick and blow in 26.2 %, fail in 13.1 %. 5) Operation in renal injuries was performed in 5 of 20 cases. 6) In bladder injuries, the extraperitoneal type was in 5 cases, the intraperitoneal in 2 cases and Contusion in only one case. 7) 66.7 % of urethral injuries were associated with pubic bone fracture.
