Brief update of the new WHO classification for urothelial carcinoma

Abstract: Purpose of reviewSix years after the release of the 4th edition of the WHO classification on male and genitourinary tumors in 2016, the upcoming 5th edition will be released in 2022. This review will discuss significant changes in the new WHO classification for urothelial carcinoma.Recent findingsSubstantial progress has been made during the last 6 years, especially in the molecular definition of bladder cancer, but also in treatment approaches. The authors have incorporated these and other changes relating to… Show more

“…A three-tiered grading system (grades 1, 2, and 3) for papillary urothelial tumors was first introduced in 1973 [24], and revisions occurred in 1998,1999,2004,2016, and 2022 to develop a modern system of grading [25][26][27][28]. Grading of the flat NMIBC follows a similar tiered grading system [1].…”

“…Bladder cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies of the urinary tract and is characterized by low sensitivity to chemotherapy and a high recurrence rate ( Saginala et al, 2020 ; Compérat et al, 2022 ). Low-grade bladder cancer has a slow progression rate and hardly presents a threat to patients.…”

“…Urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder is the second most commonly diagnosed urogenital cancer ( Saginala et al, 2020 ; Compérat et al, 2022 ). On initial presentation, 70–75% of patients with bladder tumors are categorized as non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).…”

“…The rising incidence of bladder cancer, shortage of medical experts, and lack of financial resources has become a challenge for global public health systems [1]. Bladder cancer is categorized mainly into non-muscle invasive (NMIBC) and muscle-invasive (MIBC) disease, considering detrusor muscle infiltration, which affects dramatically therapeutic planning [2]. NMIBC, accounting for 2/3 of patients presenting with bladder cancer, are highly recurrent tumors that are managed with a strict monitoring schedule with cystoscopy -for the assessment of the bladder -and CT-urography -for the assessment of the upper urothelial tract - [3], given the risk of progression to muscleinvasive stage up to 50% [4].…”
