CALCIFICATION IN URINARY BLADDER TUMORS

ERNEST J. FERRIS M.D.1 and STEPHEN J. O'CONNOR M.D.2

Five cases of calcified urinary bladder tumors have been noted in 75 cases examined.

Three types of calcifications were seen: (1) hazy opacity with a dense rim; (2) speckled irregular or serpiginous stippling; and (3) nodular, coarse calcification.

It is suggested that evaluation of the plain roentgenogram may, on occasion, yield a clue to the diagnosis of urinary bladder tumors. Awareness of the significance of the calcification of the described types should lead to more definitive procedures.
