Urothelial papilloma
Diagnosis in short

Urothelial papilloma. H&E stain.

LM papillary fronds with minimal branching or fusion, cytological and thickness of normal urothelium, no mitoses
LM DDx low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma, PUNLMP
Site urothelium - typically urinary bladder

Prognosis benign
Clin. DDx other papillary lesions

Urothelial papilloma is a rare benign lesion of the urothelium.

General

  • Rare.[1]
  • Males > females (1.9:1).[1]

Notes:

  • If the person has a history of a low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma... it is likely a low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma.
  • These cases are a consensus diagnosis, i.e. you show it to a colleague... if they agree you can call it.

Gross

  • Exophytic lesion.

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Papillary fronds.
  • Minimal branching or fusion.
  • Cytological features of normal urothelium.
    • Normal urothelium approx. 2x the size of stromal lymphocytes.[3]
