title: Urothelial grafts in mice.
abstract: Mouse bladder epithelium has been successfully transplanted to the bladders of syngeneic mice and has survived for at least twenty weeks. The fate of the transplanted tissue was followed using a fluorescein label. The recipient bladders were prepared by stripping the urothelium either by a surgical or a chemical method. The possibility of adopting a comparable technique for the treatment of early bladder cancer in man is discussed.
