The methodology of cell blocks (CBs) has long been an integrated part of cytology. However, there are very few data on CBs derived from urine. Their main disadvantage is a lack of cellularity, which limits their broader clinical applicability. Factors affecting cellular adequacy in urine remain unclear. We assessed the impact of basic clinical and cytopathological factors on the adequacy of cellularity in urinary CBs.
