Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary objective: To investigate whether the immunohistochemical characteristics of the bladder wall are different in obstructed bladders showing detrusor overactivity (DO) compared to obstructed bladders without detrusor overactivity and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) induced urinary retention

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary objective: -To describe the immunohistochemical characteristics of the bladder wall and urethra -To investigate possible microanatomical connections between nerves, ganglia and interstitial cells in the human bladder -To investigate the distribution of receptors involved in bladder-urethral interactions in relation to bladder outlet obstruction -Mapping of different structures and layers of the bladder during bladder outlet obstruction by using two-photon laser scanning microscopy (TPLSM)
