Abstract

Giant cell urothelial carcinoma is a rare variant of bladder cancer recognized by the current World Health Organization classification of urologic tumours. It is an aggressive tumour with a poor prognosis that usually presents at an advanced stage. It is characterized histologically by pleomorphic giant cells. We discuss a case of giant cell urothelial carcinoma presenting at an early stage in a previously well 62-year-old woman. Histology showed a tumour comprising pancytokeratin positive bizarre mononuclear and multi-nuclear giant cells admixed with areas of conventional urothelial carcinoma and carcinoma in situ. Three-month follow-up cystoscopy and magnetic resonance imaging showed no evidence of recurrence or pelvic lymphadenopathy.

膀胱巨细胞尿路上皮癌。
巨细胞尿路上皮癌是目前世界卫生组织泌尿系统肿瘤分类中公认的一种罕见的膀胱癌变体。它是一种侵袭性肿瘤,预后差,通常出现在晚期。组织学上以多形性巨细胞为特征。我们讨论的巨细胞尿路上皮癌在早期提出的情况下,以前良好的62岁妇女。组织学显示肿瘤由全细胞角蛋白阳性奇异的单核和多核巨细胞组成,并伴有常规尿路上皮癌和原位癌。三个月的随访膀胱镜检查和磁共振成像显示没有复发或盆腔淋巴结病的证据。
