Abstract :

 

INTRODUCTION:  Bladder tumor is the seventh most common tumor worldwide. As per Indian cancer registry data, it is the 9th most common cancer accounting for 3.9% of all cancers.

The origin of bladder tumor is multifactorial with tobacco smoke as principal cause in most countries. The vast majority of bladder tumors are epithelial in origin. Among these 80-90% are urotheilal carcinomas.

AIMS & OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study is to analyse the spectrum of lesions in urinary bladder by histopathological examination of TURBT specimens.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a prospective study conducted at Chalmeda Anand Rao Institute of Medical Sciences in the department of Pathology from August 2017 to July 2018. Clinicopathological data of all the TURBT were analysed.

 RESULTS: A total of 32 cases were studied. The histopathological examination was done and tumors were categorized according to recent 2016 WHO classification. The most common age group was 61-70years (34.3% ) with male to female ratio of 2.5:1. Among the urinary bladder tumors most of them were malignant lesions and most common type of malignancy was non invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma-high grade.

CONCLUSION: Among urinary bladder neoplasms the most common tumor is Non invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma-high grade followed by low grade.
