Urothelial carcinoma in situ, also known as high-grade (urothelial) dysplasia, a non-invasive urothelial neoplasm without papillae.
It is also known as carcinoma in situ, abbreviated CIS. Urothelial carcinoma in situ may be abbreviated UCIS.
General
- Lack papillae.
Classification of flat urothelial lesions
The World Health Organization classification is:[1]
- Reactive urothelial atypia.
- Flat urothelial hyperplasia.
- Urothelial atypia of unknown significance.
- Urothelial dysplasia (low-grade dysplasia).
- Urothelial carcinoma in situ (high-grade dysplasia).
- Invasive urothelial carcinoma.
Microscopic
Features:
- Nuclear changes key feature.
- Enlargement of nuclei (often 4-5x the size of stromal lymphocytes) -- diagnostic.[2]
- Normal urothelium approx. 2x the size of stromal lymphocytes.
- Nuclear pleomorphism - marked variation in size of nuclei.
- Enlargement of nuclei (often 4-5x the size of stromal lymphocytes) -- diagnostic.[2]
- +/-Disordered arrangement/crowding of cells.
- In normal urothelium the cell line-up on the basement membrane.
- Umbrella cells often absent.
- +/-Mitoses present.
- +/-Enlarged nucleoli.
Note:
- The urothelium may be "depleted", i.e. exist only of rare large cells on the basement membrane.
- This is known as clinging urothelial carcinoma in situ.[3]
DDx:
- Urothelial atypia of unknown significance - waffle diagnosis.
- Urothelial dysplasia.
- Urothelial carcinoma, invasive.

- Urothelial CIS with shedding (webpathology.com).
- Urothelial CIS - low mag. (webpathology.com).
- Urothelial CIS - high mag. (webpathology.com).
IHC
Features:[4]
- p53 +ve.
- Ki-67 high.
Benign urothelium vs. CIS:[5]
- CK20 +ve in deep cells (23/26 cases).
- Normal urothelium -- only the umbrella cells.
- Ki-67 ~50% of cells - deep and superficial.
- Normal ~10% of cells, confined to basal aspect.
- CD44 -ve.[6]
- Positive in indeterminant and negative.

URINARY BLADDER LESION ("TUMOUR"), TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION URINARY BLADDER TUMOUR (TURBT):
- UROTHELIAL CARCINOMA IN SITU.
- BENIGN MUSCULARIS PROPRIA PRESENT.
URINARY BLADDER, RANDOM BIOPSIES: - UROTHELIAL CARCINOMA IN SITU, SEE COMMENT. -- NO EVIDENCE OF LAMINA PROPRIA INVASION. - CHRONIC INFLAMMATION, MILD. - BENIGN MUSCULARIS PROPRIA PRESENT. COMMENT: A CK20 immunostain marks the full thickness of the urothelium in atypical areas. A p53 immunostain moderately marks up to 20% of atypical cells focally. A Ki-67 immunostain marks 20-50% of the cells in the atypical areas.
Micro
The sections show multiple fragments of urothelium with nuclear hyperchromasia, nuclear crowding, mild-to-moderate nuclear enlargement, several atypical mitoses, and lack of maturation to the surface. There is no evidence of invasion. Benign muscularis propria is present.
