Inverted urothelial papilloma, also inverted papilloma, is a benign urothelial lesion that may be confused with urothelial carcinoma.
General
- May be confused with papillary urothelial carcinoma with an inverted growth pattern.
Microscopic
Features:
- Like papillomas... but grow downward.[1]
- According to THvdK,[2] inverted papillomas never have an exophytic component; if an exophytic component is present it is urothelial carcinoma. This is disputed by one paper from Mexico that examines two cases.[3]
- Nests have peripheral palisading of nuclei - important.
DDx:
- Low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma with an inverted growth pattern.
- Cystitis cystica.

The sections show urothelial mucosa with a densely packed urothelial nests with peripheral palisading. The cells of the urothelial nests are bland. Proliferative activity is not apparent. Definite papillae are absent. No exophytic component is apparent.
