Abstract:
Introduction: There are various common non neoplastic and neoplastic (benign and malignant) lesions of urinary bladder. They are common causes for worldwide morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to study the histopathology spectrum of different urinary bladder lesions. Material and Methods: The current retrospective study included all reported cases of the received urinary bladder specimens in pathology department at Sirte Oncology Center. Results: Majority of 49 studied cases were males (87.8%). Out of which, 67.4% were neoplastic lesions with predominance of invasive urothelial tumors (63.6%), whereas 28.6% of cases were non neoplastic lesions. Inflammatory lesions (78.6%) formed the bulk amongst the non neoplastic lesions. Conclusion: The present study showed male predominance with the most encountered urinary bladder lesions are neoplastic lesions of urothelial origin. The majority of urothelial tumor are invasive cancer than non invasive type of urothelial carcinoma.
