Abstract | Primary small cell bladder carcinoma is an extremely rare and highly aggressive tumor. Unfortunately, the optimal therapeutic strategy for the tumor is still unknown. Recently, a two-stage system for limited and extensive small cell bladder carcinoma has been suggested in analogy to the practiced staging and treatment of small cell lung carcinoma. We present a new case of small cell bladder carcinoma and discuss relevant current literature. |
