Abstract
Urinary bladder tumors were one of the most common entities of urological pathology. Neoplastic & nonneoplastic lesions of urinary bladder were the common reasons for morbidity and mortality throughout world. Among neoplastic lesions, urothelial carcinoma is a common primary tumor of urinary bladder. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine the spectrum of various urothelial lesions from cystoscopic bladder biopsies received over a period of 3 years. All the urinary bladder biopsies received with two inadequate biopsies were included in this study. Out of 54 biopsies received, 12 were non neoplastic & 40 were neoplastic cases and two were inadequate biopsies. Majority of the cases were in 60-79 years age group. Males were affected more than females ( 2.85:1 ratio). Majority of the neoplastic lesions were urothelial carcinomas. Conclusion : Among the bladder tumors ,urothelial carcinoma was the most common type, among these, high grade urothelial carcinoma was common in our study. Non invasive were more common than invasive carcinoma.Identification of grade &invasion into muscle layer has an impact on prognosis as well as on therapeutic approach.
