Urinary Bladder Tumour, Transurethral Resection: | |||
- INVASIVE HIGH-GRADE UROTHELIAL CARCINOMA. | |||
-- Extensive invasion into at least the lamina propria. | |||

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 sampling and/or imaging is suggested. | |||
