Cystitis cystica
Diagnosis in short

Cystitis cystica. H&E stain.

LM nests of urothelium within the lamina propria with cyst formation, i.e. lumens are present; no nuclear atypia
LM DDx nested urothelial carcinoma, cystitis cystica et glandularis, inverted urothelial papilloma
Site urinary bladder - see urothelium

Prevalence common
Prognosis benign
Clin. DDx urothelial carcinoma

Cystitis cystica is a common inflammatory process of the urinary bladder with cyst formation.

General

Microscopic

Features:[3]

  • Nests of urothelium within the lamina propria with cyst formation, i.e. lumens are present.

Note:

  • Nests should not extend into the muscularis propria.

URINARY BLADDER, BIOPSY:
- CYSTITIS CYSTICA.
- NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.
URINARY BLADDER, TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION:
- CYSTITIS CYSTICA ET GLANDULARIS, FOCALLY WITH LARGE THIN-WALLED CYSTS.
- PROMINENT BENIGN DILATED SUPERFICIAL BLOOD VESSELS, FOCAL.
- NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.
URINARY BLADDER (TRIGONE), TRANSURETHRAL BIOPSY:
- SMALL POLYPOID FRAGMENT OF UROTHELIUM CONSISTENT WITH CYSTITIS CYSTICA.
- NO SQUAMOUS METAPLASTIC CHANGE IDENTIFIED.
- NO EVIDENCE OF MALIGNANCY.

Micro

The sections show a small fragment of urothelial mucosa with small urothelial nests that are focally cystic. The nests are well-circumscribed and approximately of equal size. Adjacent to the nests is a small cluster of bland appearing lymphocytes.

No exophytic component is identified. No papillary structures are apparent. The cytomorphology of the urothelium is bland and no mitotic activity is readily apparent.
