Sažetak
AIM: Balkan endemic nephropathy is a disease of still incompletely known etiology and is associated with increased frequency of urothelial carcinoma. Aim of the study was to compare urologic biopsies between General Hospital Dr.J.Benčević, Slavonski Brod (SB) and Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Zagreb (ZG) in 2 five-year periods with a 20 year distance. Special point was to compare the frequency of urothelial carcinoma of the kidney and urinary bladder in endemic (SB) and non-endemic (ZG) area. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We used data bases from Department of Pathology, General Hospital Slavonski Brod and Ljudevit Jurak University Department of Pathology, Zagreb for the periods form 1980-1984 and 2000-2004. RESULTS: At the Department of Pathology SB 8770 biopsies were analyzed in the first period (1980/84), out of which 4.1% (360 cases) were urologic biopsies. At the Ljudevit Jurak University Department of Pathology 61152 biopsies were analyzed for the same period, out of which 4.8% (2919 cases) were urologic biopsies. In the second period (2000/04) total number of biopsies in SB was 27267out of which 1237 (4.5%) were from the Department of Urology, while in the same period the total number of biopsies in ZG was 73245 out of which 6599 (9%) were urologic biopsies. Out of all urologic biopsies in the period 1980/84 there were 106 (30.4%) kidney biopsies in SB and 301 (10.3%) in ZG, 65 (18%) urinary bladder biopsies in SB and 969 (33.2%) in ZG, 81 (22.5%) prostate biopsies in SB and 1072 (36%) in ZG and 5 (1.4%) testicular biopsies in SB and 216 (7.4%) in ZG. In the second period there were 248 (20%) cases of kidney biopsies in SB and 749 (11.4%) in ZG, 348 (28%) urinary bladder biopsies in SB and 1299 (19.7%) in ZG, 580 (46.7%) prostate biopsies in SB and 3382 (51.3%) in ZG and 50 cases of testicular biopsies (4%) in SB and 198 (3%) in ZG. Primary tumors of the kidney in the first period were present in 29.2 % (31 cases) out of all kidney biopsies in SB and 27% (81 cases) in ZG, and in the second period they were present in 52 % (129 cases) in SB and 54% (404 cases) in ZG. For the first period in SB urothelial carcinoma of pyelon were present in 83.8% (26 cases) out of all kidney tumors and 64.3% (83 cases) for the second period while in ZG they were present in 22.2% (18 cases) for the first period and 12.6% (51 cases) for the second period. There were 53 cases of urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder in SB and 630 cases in ZG for the first period, while in the second period there were 170 cases in SB and 939 in ZG. CONCLUSION: Urothelial carcinoma of the pyelon represented the majority of renal tumors in the Slavonski Brod region, probably as a consequence of BEN. The association of BEN and urothelial cancer should be analyzed further.
