A study of the vesical ganglia in children and the relationship to the megaureter megacystis syndrome and Hirschsprung's disease

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

A method for the assay of vesical ganglion cells is described and the number and distribution of the neurones in three normal bladders was studied. Vesical ganglion counts were done in cases of the megaureter-megacystis syndrome, megaureter, bladder neck obstruction, megacystis associated with absent abdominal muscles, Hirschsprung's disease, and lumbar myelomeningocoele. A normal complement of neurones was found in each case.
