title: Eosinophilic cystitis and allergy to mitomycin-C.
abstract: Eosinophilic cystitis appears to have an allergic origin to different substances causing an immunological reaction. Up to now it was unknown that Mitomycin-C could cause this reaction. We present 6 cases of eosinophilic cystitis induced by Mitomycin-C analysing their clinical and pathological characteristics.
