Papillary urothelial hyperplasia is a benign lesion of the urothelium that is associated with the subsequent development of low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma.
General
- Benign.
- Strong association with papillary neoplasms.
- On follow-up, in one study, >1/3 have a neoplasm; thus, follow-up is recommended.[1]
Microscopic
Features:[2]
- Inflammation.
- Rare papillae
- Do not have a well-developed fibrovascular core.
- No urothelial cell atypia.

URINARY BLADDER, BIOPSY: - REACTIVE PAPILLARY HYPERPLASIA, SEE COMMENT. - NO MUSCULARIS PROPRIA IDENTIFIED. - CYSTITIS CYSTICA ET GLANDULARIS. - NO EVIDENCE OF MALIGNANCY. COMMENT: The urothelial forms rare papillary structures; these are interpreted as reactive. The urothelium stains as follow: CK7: positive (patchy). CK20: very rare superficial cells (normal). Ki-67: rare, focally increased, negative in papillary structures (<10%). p53: negative (weak focal <20%), very rare weak in rare papillary structures (<5%). Follow-up is recommended.
