  • More about The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology


The first edition of The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology introduced a new paradigm for detecting bladder cancer by urine cytology. The second edition includes areas and issues not originally covered, such as a new chapter on urine cytology of the upper tract, a separate chapter presenting data defining the risk of malignancy (ROM) for each diagnostic category, and a comprehensive history of urine as the earliest diagnostic sample of human disease. It is endorsed by the American Society of Cytopathology and the International Academy of Cytology and should find a place in every cytology laboratory.

The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology, the first edition, revolutionized the detection of bladder cancer through urine cytology. It focused on defining morphological characteristics of High Grade Urothelial Carcinoma, the most clinically significant form of bladder cancer. This innovative approach gained widespread acceptance worldwide and became an integral part of cytology practices. With the advancement of knowledge and reader requests, a new edition of the Paris System was released. This second edition expands its coverage, including areas that were previously overlooked. It introduces a dedicated chapter on urine cytology of the upper tract, a topic that has been relatively neglected. Furthermore, the criteria for all diagnostic categories now address cellular degeneration, providing valuable insights. Each chapter includes standardized reports to aid in interpretation. Perhaps most importantly, a separate chapter presents data defining the risk of malignancy (ROM) for each diagnostic category, aiding in clinical management decisions. High-quality images complement the first edition, enhancing the visualization of diagnostic clues and potential pitfalls.

In addition to chapters on diagnostic criteria, the book covers current concepts of bladder cancer pathogenesis, specimen adequacy and preparation, and ancillary tests. A bonus feature is a comprehensive history of urine as the earliest diagnostic sample of human disease, richly illustrated with artworks from renowned museums.

Written by esteemed international authorities, this comprehensive and evidence-based text is a valuable resource for cytologists, urologists, and healthcare professionals involved in bladder cancer diagnosis and management.
