{{Main|Low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma}}
===General===
*Very common.
*Very good prognosis - if it is non-invasive.
*Usually non-invasive.<ref name=pmid22510761/>
 
Note:
*Invasive low-grade UCC is:<ref name=pmid22510761/>
**~75% ''nested variant of urothelial carcinoma''.
**~25: ''low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma''.
 
===Microscopic===
Features:<ref name=Ref_WMSP310>{{Ref WMSP|310}}</ref>
*Fused papillae.
*Papillae branch.
*Larger nuclei than PUNLMPs.
*+/-Invasion into the lamina propria.

*[[Stromal reaction]].
*Infiltrating single cells.
*Small nests.
*Retraction artifact.
*Paradoxical differentiation.
 
Note:
*The presence/absence of muscle should be commented on in biopsy specimens.
*Adipose tissue may be seen in the lamina propria; tumour adjacent to adipose tissue on a biopsy does '''not''' imply invasion deep to the muscularis propria.<ref name=pmid7879346>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Bochner | first1 = BH. | last2 = Nichols | first2 = PW. | last3 = Skinner | first3 = DG. | title = Overstaging of transitional cell carcinoma: clinical significance of lamina propria fat within the urinary bladder. | journal = Urology | volume = 45 | issue = 3 | pages = 528-31 | month = Mar | year = 1995 | doi = 10.1016/S0090-4295(99)80030-2 | PMID = 7879346 }}</ref>
