'''Urothelial carcinoma in situ''', also known as '''high-grade (urothelial) dysplasia''', a non-invasive [[urothelium|urothelial]] neoplasm without papillae. | |||
It is also known as '''[[carcinoma in situ]]''', abbreviated '''CIS'''. | |||
==General== | |||
*Lack papillae. | |||
==Microscopic== | |||
Features: | |||
*Nuclear changes '''key feature'''. | |||
**Enlargement of nuclei (often 4-5x the size of stromal lymphocytes) -- diagnostic.<ref name=Ref_GUP161>{{Ref GUP|161}}</ref> | |||
***Normal urothelium approx. 2x the size of stromal lymphocytes. | |||
**Nuclear pleomorphism - marked variation in size of nuclei. | |||
*+/-Disordered arrangement/crowding of cells. | |||
**In normal urothelium the cell line-up on the basement membrane. | |||
*Umbrella cells often absent. | |||
*+/-Mitoses present. | |||
*+/-Enlarged nucleoli. | |||
Note: | |||
*The urothelium may be "depleted", i.e. exist only of rare large cells on the basement membrane. | |||
**This is known as ''clinging urothelial carcinoma in situ''.<ref>{{Ref Amin|2-55}}</ref> | |||

**Normal urothelium -- only the umbrella cells. | |||
*Ki-67 ~50% of cells - deep and superficial. | |||
**Normal ~10% of cells, confined to basal aspect. | |||
