Features:<ref name=Ref_PBoD1028>{{Ref PBoD|1028}}</ref>
*Nests of urothelium within the lamina propria with cyst formation, i.e. lumens are present.
*Cyst lining cells are cuboidal and/or columnar epithelium.
**Produce mucin.
*+/-Goblet cells, i.e. intestinal metaplasia.<ref name=Ref_WMSP304>{{Ref WMSP|304}}</ref>
 
Note:
*Nests should '''not''' extend into the muscularis propria.

The sections show urothelial mucosa with bland nests within the lamina propria with cyst formation. The stroma is edematous and has a mixed inflammatory infiltrate consisting of plasma cells, eosinophils, lymphocytes and neutrophils.
