Adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder
Diagnosis in short

Adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder. H&E stain.

Synonyms primary adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder

LM nuclear pleomorphism (may be mild), usually glandular differentiation (most common), no urothelial differentiation - essential
LM DDx urachal carcinoma, invasive urothelial carcinoma with glandular differentiation, metastatic adenocarcinoma (esp. colorectal adenocarcinoma)
IHC CK7 +ve, CK20 +ve, CDX2 +ve (strong, diffuse), beta-catenin +ve (membranous, not nuclear)
Grossing notes radical cystectomy grossing, cystoprostatectomy grossing

Prevalence rare
Treatment cystectomy

Adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder, also primary adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder and bladder adenocarcinoma, is a very uncommon malignant urinary bladder tumour.

General

Clinical:

Microscopic

Features:

  • Nuclear pleomorphism - may be mild.
  • Usually glandular differentiation (most common).
  • Without urothelial differentiation - essential.[3]

Subtypes:[2]

  • Glandular.
  • Papillary.
  • Colloidal (mucinous).
  • Signet ring cell carcinoma.
  • Clear cell carcinoma (also mesonephroid carcinoma).
