Evaluation of Urinary Inverted Papillomas: A Report of 13 Cases and Literature Review

Abstract: Inverted papilloma (IP) of the urothelium accounts for 2.2% of urothelial neoplasms. The aim of this study was to report the results of 13 patients with urinary IP, pointing out the clinical features, presentations, treatment options and outcomes. The mean age and mean follow-up periods of the patients were 60.23 +/- 3.25 (range, 44-81) years and 30 (range, 6-42) months, respectively. There was no coexistence of urothelial carcinoma with IP at presentation. Cystoscopy showed a solitary papillary tumor in the b… Show more

“…3 Papilloma constitutes 1-2% of urothelial tumors. 6 Some authors explain that papilloma lesions are not true neoplasia, but as a hyperplastic reaction of Brune cells against irritative agents or chronic inflammation. 3 However, the general opinion is that the papilloma is a true neoplasm of the urogenital system.…”

“…We speculate that these buds, to a small extent, mimic the phenotype of inverted papillomas, a rare human ureter disorder. In this disease, the ureteric urothelium extends cords of epithelial cells in away from the organ's lumen . In future, it may be informative to analyse expression of TGFβ axis molecules in these benign tumours.…”

“…Certain authors have argued that surveillance protocols, as rigorous as those employed in the management of urothelial carcinoma, appear unnecessary for this benign entity due to its low incidence of recurrence and markedly favorable prognosis during follow-up (8,11). However, it is accepted by the majority of authors that the patients should be followed with endoscopy and radiographic studies similar to those observed in patients with low-grade TCC (15), particularly in upper urinary tract IP cases. As a surveillance protocol of the upper urinary tract IP, we recommend cystoscopy and ultrasonic scans every 6 months for the first 2 years, and then annually.…”
