HISTOMORPHOLOGICAL PATTERN OF UROLOGIC MALIGNANCIES IN ILE-IFE, SOUTH-WESTERN NIGERIA
INTRODUCTION: The last decade witnessed a remarkable rise in the prevalence of several malignant diseases in Nigeria. Whether Urologic malignancies (UM) have followed the same trend remains to be studied. The pattern of UM diagnosed in a Nigerian tertiary hospital is hereby presented. Our aim was to...

description | INTRODUCTION: The last decade witnessed a remarkable rise in the prevalence of several malignant diseases in Nigeria. Whether Urologic malignancies (UM) have followed the same trend remains to be studied. The pattern of UM diagnosed in a Nigerian tertiary hospital is hereby presented. Our aim was to determine the pattern and prevalence of histologically diagnosed UM in Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex. Ile-Ife, Nigeria. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 10-year retrospective review of all patients diagnosed with UM was carried out between January 2005 and December 2014. Data was obtained from the patients’ case files and the Ife-Ijesha Cancer registry. Information obtained included demographic characteristics, site of origin and histology. Data was analysed with Statistical package for Social sciences (SPSS) Version 20. RESULTS: A total of 4675 malignancies were histologically confirmed during the study period. UM accounted for 420 (8.9%) of total malignancies. Prostate cancer was the commonest UM with 315 (75%) cases. Others include renal tumours 62(14.8%), bladder tumours 29 (6.9%), testicular tumours 13(3.1%) and scrotal tumour 1(0.2%). UM were commoner in males (348, 88.8%) than females (47, 11.2%) and accounted for 13.8% and 2.18% of all tumours in males and females respectively. CONCLUSION: This study revealed a rising prevalence of UM most especially Prostate and Renal Cancers among other malignancies in Ile-Ife. |
