Abstract

Globally, bladder cancer accounts for substantial cancer-related morbidity and mortality ranking in 9th position. Transitional cell carcinoma constitutes the majority of such cases, accounting for approximately 90-95%, while non-urothelial bladder cancers, comprising epithelial and non-epithelial subtypes, are relatively rare. Adenocarcinoma, one of the epithelial non-urothelial types, constitutes only 0.5-2% of all primary bladder cancers, and the mucinous subtype is extremely rare. In this article, we present a rare case of primary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder.
