Non‐Functional Paraganglioma of the Urinary Bladder: A Rare Cause of Bladder Tumor

IJU Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Paragangliomas of the urinary bladder (PUBs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors, representing less than 0.06% of all bladder neoplasms. While most are functional and associated with catecholamine excess, approximately 15% are non‐functional, often presenting asymptomatically and discovered incidentally.

URETERAL STRICTURE AFTER ESWL FOR URETERAL CALCULI

The Japanese Journal of Urology, 2003
There are many reports on the effects of ESWL, but few reports on the complications, especially remaining ureteral stricture after this treatment. Therefore we have retrospectively reviewed our cases to define the predisposing factors of this complication.Since 1991 we have treated urolithiasis with ESWL using a Siemens Lithostar for the first therapy.
