Keratinising squamous metaplasia of the urinary bladder is a rare benign change of the urinary bladder associated with an increased risk of malignancy;[1] however, it is not considered a pre-malignant condition.[2]

General

  • Non-keratinizing squamous metaplasia can be considered normal and is relatively common in trigone region of the bladder in women.
  • Large age range (13-80 years).[1]
  • Predominantly males - almost 4:1 (27 males:7 females in one series[1]).

Microscopic
