Physical urinalysis revealed presence of blood clots and tissue in urine, pH value of 6.5 as well as a specific gravity of 1.025 while presence of intact RBCs and clumps of transitional epithelial cells were observed on microscopic urinalysis. The case was confirmed to be of TCC of urinary ...
Vinblastine has been used in humans with TCC and has potent anti-proliferative effects against canine TCC cells in vitro.ObjectivesTo determine the antitumor activity and toxicoses of vinblastine in dogs with urinary bladder TCC.AnimalsAnimals selected were 28 privately owned dogs that presented to ...
Multiple protein changes were reproducibly detected in the TCC group, including five potential novel TCC biomarkers and seven protein clusters (mass range, 3.3 to 133 kd). One of the TCC biomarkers (3.4 kd) was also detected in bladder cancer cells procured from bladder barbotage and was ...
Urinalysis may reveal neoplastic cells in the sediment of approximately 30% of dogs with TCC. Bladder tumour antigen tests have been evaluated in dogs, with low specificity for TCC in the presence of other urologic diseases. However, the sensitivity was considered acceptable, and therefore potential...
