โฆ Synopsis
Chemical Stripping of the urinary bladder mucosa was studied in 38 cats using 5 to 25% formaldehyde solutions. The contact time varied from 1 to 20 min. With a 20% solution and contact time of 1 min, total denudation was possible without necrosis of subepithelial layers. In such cases, complete reepithelialisation and normal bladder dynamics were seen within 3-4 weeks after formaldehyde instillation. Signs of formaldehyde intoxication due to vesical resorption were not observed.

Although the procedure of mucosal stripping or denudation of the urinary bladder was developed over 25 years ago to treat the potentially neoplastic mucosa in patients with low-grade superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, the procedure was abandoned because of serious complications,
## Abstract In five cats, sacral dorsal rhizotomies were performed, alone or in conjunction with sympathetic nerve transections. Urinary bladders, collected 7, 10, or 30 days following the nerve transections, were sectioned and stained by the Holmes silver nitrate and the Nauta and Gygax methods an
Previous studies performed in our laboratory have indicated that the primary antibacterial defense mechanism of the rabbit urinary bladder is the antiadsorptive action of the surface mucopolysaccharide. Removal of this layer with an acid rinse increases bacterial adherence up to 100 fold. Exogenous
