Urothelial Carcinoma
• Risk factors: |
• Smoking 3‐7 fold ↑ risk
– Longer duration of smoking (60 yrs or >) – Number of cigarettes/day • Occupation – Exposure to aromatic amines in dye industry » Benzidine, 1‐ or 2‐naphthylamine » Makers of leather products including furniture , leather jackets – Cancer develops 15‐40 years after exposure • Drugs – Long term use of analgesics – Chemotherapy » Cyclophosphamide use • Chronic UTI or stones • Arsenic • Radiation – Entire urothelium is exposed |

low grade noninvasive PUC almost looks just like:
|
normal urothelium

• Non‐invasive urothelial neoplasms can be successfully
treated via |
• Wide excision
• Ablation • BCG therapy • Radiation |
|
Prognosis of Urothelial Carcinoma
|
Prognosis of Urothelial Carcinoma
• 70% of non‐invasive tumors recur • Non‐invasive urothelial neoplasms can be successfully treated • Wide excision • Ablation • BCG therapy • Radiation • 30% of non‐invasive tumors progress to invasive UC • Invasive UC is usually treated with radical • Invasive tumors have a poor prognosis • Prognosis is related to the depth of invasion into the bladder wall and the presence or absence of metastatic disease |
|
• Invasive UC is usually treated with
|
radical cystectomy

Key Points to Remember
Ureteral and Bladder Tumors |
• Bladder and ureteral neoplasms are derived from urothelial
cells (a.k.a transitional cells) • Benign • Malignant • Urothelial carcinoma • Specific risk factors Common molecular cytogenetic abnormalities • • Can be flat or papillary • Can be low or high grade • Low grade recurs often • Can be invasive or non‐invasive • Poor prognosis if invasive • Other rare histologic subtypes include: • Squamous carcinoma • Risk factors • Adenocarcinoma |
