Percentage of inflammation-positive biopsies before treatment and after one or repeat injections in the whole study population. A trend for increased evidence of inflammatory signs was noted in biopsies taken after the first and repeat injections compared with those obtained before treatment.

Percentage of eosinophil-positive biopsies before treatment and after one or repeat injections in the whole study population. There was increased evidence of eosinophils in biopsies taken after the first and repeat injections compared with those obtained before treatment.

Mean inflammatory score did not change in biopsies obtained after the first injection in either the NDO or IDO subgroup of patients, although a progressive increase was noted in absolute values in the NDO population.

Top panel: representative photographs from (a) NDO specimen and (b) IDO specimen at baseline. No significant difference existed between NDO and IDO bladders in degree of baseline inflammation. Photographs in the bottom panel show the presence of inflammatory findings in NDO specimens after BoNTA treatment. Arrows indicate increased numbers of lymphocytes at 4 wk post-BoNTA (c), and a larger number of lymphocytes forming a well-circumscribed node at 16 wk post-BoNTA (d). Despite the increase in mean values, the inflammatory score remained unchanged compared with baseline. All photos were taken at ×40 magnification.
