Keratinising squamous metaplasia of the urinary bladder
Diagnosis in short

Keratinizing squamous metaplasia of the bladder. H&E stain. (WC/Nephron)

LM squamous epithelium with hyperkeratosis or parakeratosis, negative for atypia
LM DDx squamous dysplasia of the metaplastic epithelium, squamous cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder, metastatic squamous cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma with squamous metaplasia or squamous differentiation
Site urinary bladder

Clinical history usually males (males:females = 4:1)
Prevalence rare
Prognosis benign, increased risk of malignancy
Treatment clinical follow-up

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][3]

General

  • Rare.[3]
  • Large age range (13-80 years).[1]
  • Predominantly males - almost 4:1 (27 males:7 females in one series[1]).

Treatment:

  • Follow-up is recommended.[3]

Note:

  • ‡ Non-keratinizing squamous metaplasia can be considered normal and is relatively common in the trigone region of the bladder in women.[citation needed]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Squamous epithelium with hyperkeratosis or parakeratosis.

DDx:

Sign out

Urinary Bladder Lesion, Biopsy:
- Extensive keratinizing squamous metaplasia with degenerative changes and acute 
  and chronic inflammation.
- NEGATIVE for dysplasia and NEGATIVE for malignancy.

Comment:
Regular follow-up is recommended.
