Abstract
A unique case of lymphocyte depletion Hodgkin's disease of the urinary bladder in a 91-year-old woman was diagnosed by exfoliative cytology on a single passed urine specimen. Subsequent bladder biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. Retrospectively, it was ascertained that the patient had had a previous diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease based on biopsy of a cervical lymph node ten years previously. This is the first case to be reported in which the presence of Reed Sternberg cells in a cytologic preparation of the urine led to the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease with involvement of the bladder.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
