title: [Incrusted alkaline cystitis. Physiopathological basis for treatment with acetohydroxamic acid].
abstract: Alkaline incrusting cystitis is an uncommon clinical condition that usually presents in the course of bladder disease. It has characteristic presenting features and is difficult to treat despite currently available therapeutic measures. Three such cases that had been diagnosed and treated at our department is described herein. The literature is reviewed and the pathologic mechanisms of this condition are analyzed.
