Abstract

Small Cell Carcinoma of the bladder accounts for less than 1% of all bladder tumors. Small Cell Carcinoma of the bladder has an aggressive behaviour and is usually metastatic at diagnosis. Due to its infrequent occurence, the literature on this entity is limited; which unsurprisingly leads to an uncertanity in defining an ideal therapeutic approach. This report, overviews the literature while describing a 70- year- old female patient who is diagnosed with small cell carcinoma of the bladder arising in an unusual localization

Mesanenin Küçük Hücreli Karsinomu

Abstract

Mesanenin küçük hücreli karsinomu, tüm mesane tümörleri içinde 1% den az sıklıkta izlenir. Agresif davranışından dolayı tanı konulduğunda sıklıkla metastaz yapmıştır. Nadir görülmesi nedeniyle az sayıda literatür bilgisi vardır. Bu durum ideal tedavide belirsizliğe neden olmaktadır. Bu olguda mesane tavanında yerleşim gösteren, mesanenin küçük hücreli karsinomu tanısı alan 70 yaşındaki kadın hasta literatür eşliğinde sunuldu.
