Papillary Urothelial Carcinoma

We report on a 31-year-old male patient with non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma, low grade of the renal pelvis disguised as xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. The only symptom of the patient was lower back pain. The initial renal-enhanced computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography showed that the right kidney had a benign lesion and this inflammatory lesion might be xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. A percutaneous renal biopsy was performed and histopathologic examination revealed a xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. Initially, we diagnosed it as xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis and treated it with antibiotics. One and a half years later, the patient suffered from back pain again. The lesion increased significantly and a right renal pelvic lesion with retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy was considered a malignant lesion on computed tomography scan. Therefore, radical resection of right renal pelvis carcinoma was performed under retroperitoneal laparoscopy. Intraoperative frozen section was reported as right renal urothelial carcinoma with no metastasis in renal hilar lymph node. Postoperative histopathologic examination revealed non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma, low grade of renal pelvis.

Papillary Urothelial Carcinoma

Background Condyloma acuminatum is a squamous epithelial lesion which uncommonly involves the urinary tract. In this location, non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma constitutes one of the main differential diagnoses with significant prognostic and therapeutic implications. To date, no ancillary immunohistochemical stain has been described to differentiate these two entities. We assess the utility of cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6) and GATA-3 immunohistochemistry in distinguishing condyloma acuminatum from non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma. Design We reviewed 9 condylomata acuminata involving the urinary tract, 12 low-grade and 8 high-grade non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas. CK5/6 immunostaining was performed in all cases. GATA-3 immunostaining and low-risk human papilloma virus (HPV) chromogenic in situ hybridization was performed in all condyloma cases and 2 urothelial carcinomas with squamous differentiation. Results 8/9 condylomata acuminata were positive for low-risk HPV. All condylomata acuminata exhibited strong full-thickness cytoplasmic staining for CK5/6. In 10 of 12 low-grade non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas, CK5/6 expression was continuous and limited to the basal cell layer, while it was patchy and limited to the basal cell layer in all 8 high-grade non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas. Two low-grade non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas showed focal full-thickness CK5/6 expression in the areas of squamous differentiation. These 2 cases were negative for low-risk HPV. GATA-3 immunostaining was positive in all condylomata acuminata. Conclusions CK5/6 immunostaining is a useful and simple tool that can help separate low-grade and high-grade non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas from condyloma acuminatum involving the urothelium-lined organs. GATA-3 has no discriminatory role between condyloma acuminatum and papillary urothelial carcinomas.

Tumor non-invasif merupakan mayoritas neoplasma kandung kemih primer pada diagnosis awal. Sekitar 70-75% karsinoma urotelial baru adalah non-invasif dan papiler dengan rasio laki-laki-perempuan adalah 3:1. Lebih dari 50% dari tumor ini adalah low grade. Kami melaporkan kasus perempuan 53 tahun yang mengeluh nyeri pinggang tanpa hematuria. Biopsi jaringan dari kandung kemih dilakukan. Pemeriksaan makroskopik dengan volume 1 cc massa putih keabuan dengan permukaan tidak rata. pemeriksaan mikroskopis tampak jaringan terfragmentasi dengan struktur papiler dan bercabang yang dilapisi oleh lebih dari 7 lapisan epitel transisional dengan inti pleomorfik dan sedikit ireguler, kromatin kasar, beberapa sitoplasma jernih dan aktivitas mitosis rendah. Stroma terdiri dari jaringan ikat fibrosa, dengan pembuluh darah dilatasi dan kongesti. Karcinoma urotelial papiler adalah neoplasma urotelial papiler dengan gangguan cytoarchitectural dalam berbagai tingkatan. Berdasarkan fitur histologis, diagnosis low grade papiler urotelial karsinoma dibuat. Selanjutnya, tumor ini memiliki risiko tinggi mengalami kekambuhan, dan kurang dari 15% pasien berkembang menjadi penyakit invasif. Non-invasive tumors represent the majority of primary bladder neoplasms during initial diagnosis. About 70-75% of new urothelial carcinomas are non-invasive and papillary with male to female ratio of 3:1. More than 50% of these tumors are low grade. We reported the case of a 53-year-old woman who complained of low back pain without hematuria. Then, bladder biopsy was done. Macroscopic examination revealed 1 cc of grayish mass with an uneven surface. Microscopic examination revealed fragmented tissue with a papillae and branched structure covered with more than 7 transitional epithelium layers with slightly irregular nuclei, rough chromatin, several clear cytoplasms and low mitotic activity. Stroma consists of fibrous connective tissue, with dilated blood vessels and congestion. Papillary urothelial carcinoma is papillary urothelial neoplasm with cytoarchitectural disorder in various levels. Based on histological features, a diagnosis of low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma was made. It was concluded that this tumor had a high risk of recurrence, and less than 15% of patients develop onto invasive disease.

Abstract Objectives Low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma (LGUC) has overall a preserved orderly appearance, minimal variability in architecture, and lack of significant cytologic atypia and mitotic activity without pleomorphism. A total of 53.8% of LGUC cases recur with 18.3% progression to high-grade UC. Even focal HGUC in LGUC can be a harbinger of progression. Accurate pathological interpretation is paramount in predicting recurrence and determining treatment. Methods A 63-year-old male with a past medical history of coronary artery disease, benign prostate hyperplasia, and obesity was referred to urology with a chief complaint of chronic hematuria. Cystoscopy with transurethral resection of bladder tumor was performed, which revealed mainly LGUC with focal high-grade-appearing UC. Results Histologic sections revealed papillary architecture with fused fronds, low-grade nuclear atypia, and scattered mitoses comprising 95% of the tissue submitted. No muscular wall invasion by carcinoma was seen. However, in one section, collections of large cells with well-defined cytoplasmic borders, multinucleation, and rare nuclear grooves were identified. The morphology raised the suspicion of a focal HGUC. Diffuse expression of CK20 and low Ki-67 proliferation index (1%) favored umbrella cells. Conclusion Our case reinforces the fact that sectioning can reveal foci, suspicious for HGUC, especially in urothelium. However, proper interpretation of morphology combined with the help of immunohistochemistry aids in accurate diagnosis, which is critical in determining proper clinical management of the patient.
