“…The prognostic factors of the cancer include tumor stage, grade and subtype. According to a previous study, if the cancer is limited to the bladder, the survival rate may exceed 75% (6). At this stage, the ultrasound appearance may resemble urinary tract infection (6).…”

“…According to a previous study, there is a progressive change from mucinous metaplasia to mucinous adenoma to mucinous adenocarcinoma (5). Patients with bladder exstrophy and urachal remnants are at higher risk of developing bladder adenocarcinoma (6). It was also suggested that chronic inflammatory processes of the bladder mucosa induce metaplastic changes to the more protective squamous cell or glandular-type epithelium (7).…”

Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder is rare. The most common symptoms are hematuria, suprapubic pain and dysuria. The patient in the present case was a 59-year-old female who presented with a tumor sized ~5.0×3.4 cm, located in the anterior bladder wall, which was pathologically diagnosed as mucinous bladder adenocarcinoma. The stage at presentation was considered to be advanced and inoperable, due to extensive local invasion. For this type of cancer, early diagnosis is crucial. If the cancer is limited to the bladder, the survival rate may exceed 75%. Thus, for patients with confirmed or highly suspicious bladder mucinous adenocarcinoma, radical bladder cancer resection is required. The 5-year survival rate of this type of cancer is 35-55%. In the present case, the cancer of the patient was considered inoperable and 3 months later she succumbed to the disease.

“…Primary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder, a subtype of PBA, are extremely uncommon, accounting for 20% of PBA (14,15). The pathogenesis of primary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder is the progressive change from mucinous metaplasia and mucinous adenoma to mucinous adenocarcinoma (16). Diagnostic tests include urine biopsy, cystoscopy and cytology, and histopathological evaluation (17,18).…”

Background: Primary bladder adenocarcinoma (PBA) only accounts for 2% of primary bladder cancers.PBA symptoms vary according to the volume, location, and the metastasis of the tumor. The most common symptoms include suprapubic pain, hematuria, dysuria, and bladder irritation. In the initial stage, the diagnosis of PBA is possibly delayed due to the lack of obvious symptoms. When diagnosed, up to 40% of patients are reported to have metastatic disease. PBA can occur anywhere in the bladder, especially the bottom, neck, and roof. However, the mass at the bladder outlet and urethra is a rare presentation of PBA.Through this rare case, when clinicians encounter similar patients, they can have richer ideas for diagnosis and treatment, which is helpful for the timely diagnosis and effective treatment.Case Description: A 62-year-old female was referred to an outpatient urology surgery service due to a 1-year history of narrowing of the urinary route and difficulties in urination. No significant abnormalities were found in other surgical examinations, and the patient denied having a genetic history or similar history in her family. Ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic mass of 6.5 cm × 3.8 cm × 4.4 cm at the bladder outlet and urethra. Computed tomography (CT) plain scan and enhancing scan displayed that the wall of bladder was thickened, and soft tissue density was seen at the bladder outlet and urethra with slight enhancement and an unclear partial boundary. The mass was confirmed to be PBA.Conclusions: Primary mucinous adenocarcinoma of bladder usually detected in the posterior wall and trigone, but at the bladder outlet and urethra was rare. In this report, Imaging examination showed that the mass was located at the bladder outlet and urethra, and was finally confirmed by surgery. Due to the location of the growth, our patient's only symptoms were dysuria and urinary tract thinning, without hematuria, suprapubic pain, or bladder irritation. Timely diagnosis and treatment of this case depend on the findings of imaging examination. We describe the imaging features of this rare disease entity and the relevant literature review.

“…Mucinous subtype of primary bladder adenocarcinoma (PBA) is extremely rare. Progressive change from mucinous metaplasia to mucinous adenoma to mucinous adenocarcinoma has been suggested as pathogenesis [2]. Diagnostic investigations are urinary cytology, cystoscopy, and biopsy followed by histopathological evaluation.…”
