title: [Balkan nephropathy and transitional cell carcinoma. Pathogenetic problems and the early phase of cancerogenesis].
abstract: Balkan Nephropathy belongs to the group of primary chronic interstitial nephropathy with tubular functional abnormalities at early clinical stage. This disease may occur at any age and may affect all members of the same family including the children existing in them in latent form. The coincidental occurrence of Balkan Nephropathy and urothelial carcinoma has been very often observed. The actual problems of early Balkan Nephropathy pathogenesis and carcinogenesis are considered.
