Background:  Urinary bladder lesions are the main source of significant clinical symptoms which are more disabling than lethal. Bladder tumors constitute one of the most common urological pathology. Urothelial carcinoma accounts for 90% of all primary tumors of the bladder. This study aimed to determine the frequency of different types of lesions of the urinary bladder and to determine the grade and stage of urothelial tumors.Materials and Methods: This is a 2 years cross sectional study of cystoscopic biopsies carried out in the Department of Pathology, Medicare National Hospital and Research Centre, Kathmandu, Nepal.Results:  Out of 87 cases, 58 (66.67%) cases were neoplastic lesions and 29(33.33%) cases were non- neoplastic lesions. Majority of neoplastic lesions 96.55% were urothelial (transitional cell) tumors comprising predominantly of low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma 50.91%. Muscle invasion was seen only in high grade papillary urothelial carcinomas.Conclusion: Among bladder tumors low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma is the most common.

Background: Urinary bladder lesions are a great health concern as it lies among the top ten most common cancers in the world. These range from benign, harmless lesions that do not recur to life threatening tumors. The present study was undertaken to study incidence of various urothelial cancer in patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumor in tertiary care hospital, as the treatment, follow up and prognosis is highly variable with different subtypes of bladder cancer.Methods: A hospital based descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on all patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumor from December 2018 to May 2020 in the Department of General Surgery of Sri Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Amritsar. Based on World Health Organization (WHO) classification incidence of various urothelial malignancy was calculated.Results: Out of 80 patients with growth urinary bladder, 4 patients (5% of total patient) were diagnosed as case of papilloma, 26 patients (32.5% of total patients) were diagnosed as low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma, 50 patients (62.5% of total patients) were of high grade papillary urothelial carcinoma. There were no case of PUNLMP in our study.Conclusions: It can be concluded that majority of the patient undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumor are diagnosed with high grade papillary carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Urinary bladder cancer is second most common cancer after prostate cancer in the genitourinary system. Urothelial Carcinoma is the commonest tumour type accounting for 90% of all primary tumours of the bladder Histopathological analysis of cystoscopic bladder biopsy and Transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT) material are the mainstay for cancer diagnosis. This study was aimed to determine the frequency of different types of neoplastic lesions of the urinary bladder and to determine the grade and stage of urothelial tumours. MATERIAL METHOD: The study was carried out in the Department of Pathology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Ranchi from January 2018 to June 2020 and included 30 cases of cystoscopic biopsies and TURBT specimens. RESULTS: Out of 30 cases of neoplastic lesions, majority were of high grade papillary urothelial carcinoma (n=14, 46.67%) followed by low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma (n=9, 30%), 3 cases (10%) were of PUNLMP, 2 cases (6.66%) of papilloma and 1 (3.33%) case each of moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and extra nodal NHL. The most common age group was 41-50 years and 51-60 years with 9 (30%) cases each. Muscle invasion was seen only in high grade papillary urothelial carcinomas. CONCLUSION: High-grade urothelial carcinomas with lamina propria and muscle invasion are the most common neoplastic lesion of urinary bladder with significant morbidity and mortality. Muscle invasion and grading, as per TNM staging, are valuable prognostic factors.

Primary renal chondrosarcomas are rare tumors that are high-grade in nature and, unfortunately, have poorly understood pathogenesis and extremely low prognosis. The coexistence of a discrete malignancy in the urinary bladder is even rarer, with the occurrence of distinct papillary urothelial carcinoma in the urinary bladder in this case. The clinical presentation is nonspecific, and the primary radiological investigations have a limited scope in providing specific diagnosis of this entity. The final diagnosis is possible on thorough histopathological examination of the resected specimen, which requires extensive sampling and meticulous reporting. As of now, the only way to achieve a better prognosis is by early diagnosis. It is necessary to keep the possibility of occurrence of sarcomas at rare sites in the differential diagnoses. The cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities associated with this entity need to be elucidated to achieve a more satisfactory outcome concerning the overall management of the patient.
