URINARY BLADDER, BIOPSY:
- REACTIVE PAPILLARY HYPERPLASIA, SEE COMMENT.
- NO MUSCULARIS PROPRIA IDENTIFIED.
- CYSTITIS CYSTICA ET GLANDULARIS.
- NO EVIDENCE OF MALIGNANCY.
COMMENT:
The urothelial forms rare papillary structures; these are interpreted as reactive.
The urothelium stains as follow:
CK7: positive (patchy).
CK20: very rare superficial cells (normal).
Ki-67: rare, focally increased, negative in papillary structures (<10%).
p53: negative (weak focal <20%), very rare weak in rare papillary structures (<5%).
Follow-up is recommended.
