Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential
Diagnosis in short

PUNLMP. H&E stain.

LM rare fused papillae, infrequent mitoses, nuclei larger than papilloma - but monotonous
LM DDx low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma, urothelial papilloma
Site urothelium

Prevalence uncommon
Treatment excision and on-going follow-up - like non-invasive low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma

Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential, abbreviated PUNLMP, is an uncommon urothelial lesion that is similar to low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma.

PUNLMP is pronounced pun-lump.

Inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (abbreviated IUNLMP) redirects here.

Treatment:

Microscopic

Features:[5]

  • Rare fused papillae.
  • Infrequent mitoses.
  • Nuclei larger than papilloma - but monotonous.[6]

Note:

  • May grow downward; known as PUNLMP with inverted growth[7] and inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (abbreviated IUNLMP).[8]

Urinary Bladder Tumour, Transurethral Resection: 
     - Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP).

Micro

The sections show a papillary urothelial lesion with minimal anisonucleosis. The papillae are predominantly slender and branch. Minimal proliferative activity is present. The lesion is well demarcated in relation to the subepithelial tissue.

Alternate

The sections show a papillary urothelial lesion with monotonous nuclei and minimal atypia. The papillae are predominantly slender and branch. Mitotic figures are very rare. The lesion is well demarcated in relation to the subepithelial tissue.

Inverted pattern predominant

Urinary Bladder Tumour, Transurethral Resection: 
- Inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential with an 
  exophytic papillary component. 

Comment: 
This lesion is a variant of papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant 
potential (PUNLMP). Followup is required. 

The case was reviewed by a second GU pathologist.
