Abstract
There is a paucity of information regarding the behavior of human detrusor muscle in vitro. This is mainly due to the dependence of muscle bath techniques on large strips of material, which can be obtained only at open operations and which may not be viable because of limited diffusion of oxygen and metabolites through the tissue. A new technique for the in vitro study of muscle obtained during endoscopic procedures by cup biopsy is reported. This technique gives consistent and reproducible results.
