Abstract

 Carcinoid tumors are known to arise from enterochromaffin cells and are usually found arising from tissue derived from the embryonicneural crest. Although they are more commonly encountered in gastrointestinal and respiratory organs, rarely they have also been encountered in the genitourinary tract, including the kidney and urinary bladder. Only 29 cases of pure carcinoid tumor of bladder have been reported so far in the literature. We report here another case of pure carcinoid tumor of bladder involving the prostatic urethra and whole of the prostate, who underwent radical cystectomy.


Keywords: Primary Carcinoid Tumor; Bladder Carcinoid; Malignant Bladder Carcinoid; Pure Carcinoid of Bladder.
