Bladder leiomyosarcoma is a unique mesenchymal tumour,accounting for less than 0.5% of all primary bladder malignancies.Bladder leiomyosarcoma used to be treated with radical surgeryin either old or young patients, often resulting in significantimpact on the patients’s quality of life after surgery. We reporton a case of bladder leiomyosarcoma in a 31-year-old femalewho was treated with partial cystectomy. Fortunately, no tumourmetastasis or relapse was observed during the 7-year follow-upperiod and the patient now has a good quality of life. We foundthat partial cystectomy may be an acceptable option to treat bladderleiomyosarcoma in the low MSKCC (Memorial Sloan-KetteringCancer Center) stage.

Paraganglioma is a rare neuroendocrine tumor that arises from the autonomic nervous system. The urinary bladder paraganglioma accounts for less than 0.1% of bladder tumors. It remains a challenging entity to diagnose and treat due to its rareness and the lack of specific symptoms. Treatment modalities include transurethral resection and cystectomy (partial or total). The authors report a new case of an isolated paraganglioma of the urinary bladder in a 52-year-old female patient that underwent partial cystectomy. This case aims to remind the clinical, histological and therapeutic features of this rare tumor.

Although rare, secondary tumors of the bladder can present a diagnostic dilemma to pathologists considering a differential diagnosis of primary bladder cancer. We investigated the clinicopathologic and imaging characteristics of metastatic tumors to the bladder. We retrospectively reviewed the surgical pathology databases from 2 sites from 2013 to 2016, identifying 66 cases of secondary bladder tumors. Clinical, pathologic, and imaging findings were reviewed. Mean age at diagnosis was 63 years (range = 25-87). Females had a significantly higher proportion (44/66, 66.7%) of secondary bladder tumors compared with males (22/66, 33.3%; P = .007). In total, 56/66 (84.8%) patients had a clinical history of an in situ or invasive malignancy in another organ, and 54/66 (81.8%) patients had imaging supporting a metastatic tumor. Only 2/66 (3.0%) patients had a prior history of urothelial carcinoma. In total, 4/66 (6.1%) cases (all females) were originally misdiagnosed as primary bladder malignancies and were corrected after clinicoradiologic correlation. Overall, colorectal origin was most common (15/66, 22.7%), followed by cervical and ovarian primaries (10/66, 15.2% each). Cervical and ovarian origins predominated in the female cohort (10/44, 22.7% each), followed by endometrial (8/44, 18.2%). Colorectal and prostate primaries were the most common among males (10/22, 45.5%, and 7/22, 31.8%, respectively). Secondary bladder tumors can mimic urothelial carcinomas. In our cohort, gynecological, colorectal, and prostatic origins were most common. Clinical history, imaging, and immunohistochemical studies can be useful in avoiding this diagnostic pitfall.

e15015 Background: Micropapillary bladder carcinoma (MPBC) is a rare variant of urothelial carcinoma. The objective of this study was to examine the epidemiology, natural history, and prognostic factors of MPBC using population-based registry. Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program database was used to identify cases of MPBC by tumor site and histology codes. The clinical, demographic characteristics, treatment and survival of MPBC were examined. Results: A total of 98 cases of histology confirmed MPBC were identified between 2001 and 2007, this accounted for approximately 0.01% of all primary bladder tumors during the study period. Median age of the patients was 72 years (range 26-95). Of all the patients with MPBC, 56.1% had muscle invasive disease; 75.5% of patients had poorly or undifferentiated histology. A total of 30.6% of all patients (2.3% superficial disease; 52.7% of muscle-invasive MPBC) had radical or partial cystectomy. By logistic regression analysis, nonmuscle-invasive MPBC (OR 62.5, 95% CI 7.2-542.3) was associated with lower rate of utilization of cystectomy. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rate of MPBC were 84.5%, 57.3% and 42.3%. In multivariate analysis, tumor stage (HR 4.7, 95% CI 1.0-21.8) was found to be the only significant predictor for cancer-specific survival. Conclusions: The optimal therapy for MPBC remains undermined. Emphasis on early detection is needed to improve the outcome for patients with this malignancy.
