Squamous cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder after intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin therapy for carcinoma in situ: a case report

摘要

A 88-year-old woman presented with bladder tamponade caused by gross hematuria. She had received 2 courses of bacillus-Calmette-Guerin (BCG) intravesical instillation therapy 4 months previously because of the bladder tumor with carcinoma in situ (CIS). Imaging studies and cystoscopy showed a bladder tumor invading into perivesical fat. She underwent total cystectomy and bilateral ureterocutaneostomy on May 27, 2002. Histopathologically, the tumor consisted of squamous cell carcinoma and transitional cell carcinoma.
