Diagnosis in short | |
LM DDx | metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (esp. squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix), urothelial carcinoma with squamous differentiation, condyloma acuminatum, squamous dysplasia |

Clinical history | lived in areas with Schistosoma haematobium |
Prevalence | very rare |
Squamous cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder, abbreviated SCC of the bladder, is a rare cancer of the urinary bladder.
Squamous differentiation in urothelial carcinoma is common and much more frequent than SCC of the bladder.
General
- Strong association with Schistosoma haematobium.[1]
- Common in areas with S. haematobium.
- Uncommon in areas without S. haematobium.
Microscopic
Features:
- See squamous cell carcinoma article.
DDx:
- Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma.
- Urothelial carcinoma with squamous differentiation - very common.
- In biopsies, this should be mentioned as a possibility.
- Condyloma acuminatum.
- Squamous dysplasia.
IHC
Features:
- p16 -ve/+ve.
- Not definite for separating from cervix - but suggestive: cervix ~86% +ve, bladder ~37% +ve.[2]
