Abstract:
Adenocarcinoma represents 0.5 to 2% of all malignant tumors of the bladder, and the mucinous subtype is extremely rare as a primary vesical lesion. This is the case of a 50-year-old male who presented with dysuria with occasional hematuria, underwent cystoscopy, transurethral resection of the bladder tumor, with the subsequent diagnosis of Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder. He then completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy but eventually underwent cystoprostatectomy, urethrotomy with extended bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection due to tumor progression.
