Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential
Diagnosis in short

PUNLMP. H&E stain.

LM rare fused papillae, infrequent mitoses, nuclei larger than papilloma - but monotonous
LM DDx low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma, urothelial papilloma
Site urothelium

Prevalence uncommon
Treatment excision and on-going follow-up - like non-invasive low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma

Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential, abbreviated PUNLMP, is an uncommon urothelial lesion that is similar to low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma.

PUNLMP is pronounced pun-lump.

Inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (abbreviated IUNLMP) redirects here.

General

Treatment:

Microscopic

Features:[5]

  • Rare fused papillae.
  • Infrequent mitoses.
  • Nuclei larger than papilloma - but monotonous.[6]

Note:

  • May grow downward; known as PUNLMP with inverted growth[7] and inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (abbreviated IUNLMP).[8]

Inverted pattern predominant

Urinary Bladder Tumour, Transurethral Resection: 
- Inverted urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential with an 
  exophytic papillary component. 

Comment: 
This lesion is a variant of papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant 
potential (PUNLMP). Followup is required. 

The case was reviewed by a second GU pathologist.
