Urinary Bladder Neoplasm

Urinary Bladder Neoplasm

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), also called urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) of the bladder, is the most common primary neoplasm of the urinary bladder, and bladder TCC is the most common tumour of the entire urinary system.

Age: 52

Sex : Male

CASE DISCUSSION

The bladder is by far the most common site of transitional cell carcinomas, 50 times more common than TCC of the renal pelvis, and 100 times more common than TCC of the ureter 1. Bladder TCCs are the most common tumour of the entire urinary tract.

There is a known association of TCCs developing within bladder diverticula, presumably due to urinary stasis which leads to chronic urothelial irritation and potentially exaggerated exposure to urinary carcinogens 10-12.
