Features - either:
*Micropapillae.
#Micropapillae:<ref name=pmid21080874/>
**Quantity of micropapillary (percentage) is variable.<ref name=pmid25673582/>
#*Nipple-like structures without fibrovascular cores.
*Conventional [[urothelial carcinoma]] (typical).
#Nests of tumour cells with clefting to the surrounding stroma - this is the invasive pattern of ''micropapillary urothelial carcinoma''.
*+/-Conventional [[urothelial carcinoma]] (common).
 
Notes:
*In other organs, [[adenocarcinoma]] would be in the differential diagnosis. It should be noted that (primary) [[adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder]] looks quite different than ''micropapillary urothelial carcinoma''.
*Quantity of micropapillary pattern (percentage) is variable.<ref name=pmid25673582/>
