A high percentage of these patients had squamous cell carcinoma and/or squamous elements. This relatively high incidence stimulated a prospective study of 81 spinal cord injury patients either maintained on intraurethral catheter drainage for 10 years or an external appliance for 15 years. There were changes of squamous metaplasia in 19 per cent of the cases but no cancer was detected. It remains undetermined if squamous metaplasia is a pre-malignant lesion. However, the incidence of squamous metaplasia and squamous cell carcinoma in paraplegics with chronically infected bladders is not uncommon. Any spinal cord injury patient with hematuria needs a complete bladder evaluation and any long-term paraplegic with chronic infection should undergo cystoscopy and Papanicolaou smears as part of the yearly checkup. © 1981 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByChaudhry R, Madden-Fuentes R, Ortiz T, Balsara Z, Tang Y, Nseyo U, Wiener J, Ross S and Seed P (2018) Inflammatory Response to Escherichia coli Urinary Tract Infection in the Neurogenic Bladder of the Spinal Cord Injured HostJournal of Urology, VOL. 191, NO. 5, (1454-1461), Online publication date: 1-May-2014.Cameron A, Rodriguez G and Schomer K (2018) Systematic Review of Urological Followup After Spinal Cord InjuryJournal of Urology, VOL. 187, NO. 2, (391-397), Online publication date: 1-Feb-2012.ZOMMICK J, SIMONEAU A, SKINNER D and GINSBERG D (2018) Continent Lower Urinary Tract Reconstruction in the Cervical Spinal Cord Injured PopulationJournal of Urology, VOL. 169, NO. 6, (2184-2187), Online publication date: 1-Jun-2003.KONETY B, NGUYEN T, BRENES G, SHOLDER A, LEWIS N, BASTACKY S, POTTER D and GETZENBERG R (2018) CLINICAL USEFULNESS OF THE NOVEL MARKER BLCA-4 FOR THE DETECTION OF BLADDER CANCERJournal of Urology, VOL. 164, NO. 3 Part 1, (634-639), Online publication date: 1-Sep-2000.
