Bladder lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma: a case report

Bladder lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma is a rare entity. It represents a particular variant of urothelial carcinoma characterized by an important infiltrating power. Therapeutic management of this cancer is not codified. Surgery associated with chemotherapy seems to be the best therapeutic option. Few cases of this tumor have been reported in the literature. We report a case of bladder lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma in a 52-year-old patient who presented with gross hematuria and discusses difficulties of diagnostic and treatment.
