Abstract:
An additional case of signet ring cell adenocarcinoma of the bladder is described. This tumor type is considered to be uncommon; however, recent studies have reported a higher incidence. The etiopathogenesis and clinical features are discussed. Because it is silent and very aggressive, it is always diagnosed late and the outcome is poor. Treatment is by surgery since radio and chemotherapy have been shown to be little effective.
