Hello,
I'm new to this site and just wanted some opinions from people who actually have dealt with this. I've had severe pain in my rt kidney, ureter and bladder for over a year along with recurrent, UTI's, pain when urinating, fatigue, nausea. I'm practically disabled from the pain and have had the hardest time finding doctors that I trust. I recently had a diag. ureteroscopy and they found a few suspicious areas. This is what my path report says.....
A. rt. ureteral biopsy: minute fragment of atypical papillary lesion and partially denuded urothelial mucosa with urothelial dysplasia
B. Periureteral biopsy: partially denuded urothelial mucosa and submucosa with squamous metastasis and acute and chronic inflammation. Negative for dysplasia or malignancy.
Comments: The biopsy designated "the right ureteral" consists of two minute fragments of urothelial mucosa and submucosa with partially denuded mucosa.One small fragment shows a papillary configuration with cytologic atypia. The findings fall short of a diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma in-situ, and are best classified as urothelial dysplasia.
I'm so sick of fighting with our medical system and just want a few opinions on what this means. if anything?
Thanks so much!
Nicole
