title: Diagnostic aspects of bladder angiography in urinary bladder tuberculosis.
abstract: Histopathological and angiographic findings were correlated in 6 cases of tuberculosis of the urinary bladder. The number of vessels was only slightly increased in the initial and fibrotic stages, whereas hypervascularization was observed in the exudative and productive stages. Otherwise the angiographic changes were nonspecific. Thus it was not possible to distinguish tuberculous cystitis from cystitis of other genesis, and in some instances from tumours of the urinary bladder either.
