Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the urinary bladder
Diagnosis in short

Urinary bladder lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma. H&E stain.
LM squamoid cells with abundant dense cytoplasm central nuclei +/- small/indistinct nucleoli, prominent lymphoid infiltrate
Subtypes (subtype of urothelial carcinoma)
LM DDx lymphoma, urothelial carcinoma and inflammation, metastatic lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma
IHC CK34betaE12 +ve, p63 +ve/-ve, CK7 +ve/-ve, CK20 -ve, CD30 -ve

Prevalence rare
Prognosis favourable on limited data
Other not associated with EBV

Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the urinary bladder, also urinary bladder lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (abbreviated UBLELC), is a rare variant of urothelial carcinoma.[1]

General

  • Rare.
  • Not associated with EBV.[2]
  • Good prognosis on scant data[3] - possibly poor if metastatic.

Microscopic

Features:

  • Clusters of (cohesive) squamoid cells with:
    • Abundant dense cytoplasm.
    • Central nuclei +/- small/indistinct nucleoli.
  • Prominent lymphoid infiltrate - key feature.
  • +/-Urothelial carcinoma in situ.

Note:

  • Peritumoural lymphoid aggregates are typical.[4]

DDx:

IHC

Features:[2]

  • p53 +ve/-ve. (+ve in ~60% of cases).
  • CK34betaE12 +ve (+ve in ~75% of cases).
  • CK7 +ve/-ve (+ve in ~60% of cases).
  • p63 +ve/-ve (+ve in ~50% of cases).

Others:[2]

  • CK20 -ve.
  • TTF-1 -ve.
  • CD30 -ve.
