The cytology of ileal conduit urine bladder cancer was examined. Investigators in India conducted research “to study the cytomorphology of urine obtained from the ileal conduit and to determine its utility and identify the pitfalls. Urine specimens from 469 cases of suspected or proven bladder cancer received over a period of 5 years were analyzed in the cytology laboratory.” “In 35 cases, total bladder resection was followed by ileal conduit reconstruction. The follow-up cytologic analysis of these 35 ileal conduit cases formed the basis of this study. There was absence of urothelial cells in all but 2 cases. The smear predominantly showed small, scattered intestinal mucosal cells with pyknotic nuclei, extensive karyorrhexis and nume…
