The presence or absence of '''muscularis propria invasion in the urinary bladder''' is a ''very important'' determination, as the clinical management changes between T1 and T2:

A thin layer of discontinous muscularis mucuosae (MM) is present and, especially if hypertrophic, may be confused with muscuaris propria (MP).

Staging of bladder cancer is dealt with in the ''[[bladder cancer staging]]'' article.

===Cannot exclude MP invasion===
<pre>
Urinary Bladder Tumour, Transurethral Resection:
- INVASIVE HIGH-GRADE UROTHELIAL CARCINOMA.
-- Extensive invasion into at least the lamina propria.
- Negative for definite muscularis propria, see comment.
Comment:
The tumour is seen around bundles of smooth muscle that are favoured
to represent muscularis mucosa; however, obliterated muscularis
propria cannot be excluded.
Correlation with the clinical findings is required. Additional transurethral
sampling and/or imaging to assess the muscularis propria is suggested.
