title: Computerized tomography in evaluation of transitional cell carcinoma in bladder diverticula.
abstract: Between 1981 and 1985, 6 patients with transitional cell carcinoma in bladder diverticula had preoperative computerized tomography (CT). CT suggested no invasion through the wall of the diverticulum in all 5 patients who had pathologic confirmation. CT is a useful staging procedure and is helpful in determining the management of patients with transitional cell carcinoma.
