“…Concomitant VMs can be characterized by a highly metastatic potential. As to micropapillary variant, a large multi-institutional cohort study demonstrated that micropapillary variant was associated with higher pathologic stage and LVI in MIBC patients who underwent radical cystectomy [ 28 ]. This finding strongly implies UC with micropapillary variant presents higher capability of invasion and metastasis.…”

“…Similarly, Fairey et al compared the outcomes of 33 patients with micropapillary variant to 1347 with PUC, and found that although micropapillary variant was associated with several adverse pathological features (higher stage, grade, and tumour multifocality), there was no difference in OS or recurrence‐free survival at 5 years. Mitra et al also looked at micropapillary variant and found in comparison with PUC that patients with micropapillary variant had poorer 5‐year recurrence‐free survival (70% vs 44%, P < 0.01) and OS (61% vs 38%, P < 0.01). This was not found to be significant on multivariate analysis for risks of recurrence ( P = 0.27) or mortality ( P = 0.12).…”

“…Subcategories of variant histology were not examined in detail as they comprised a small minority of the population and this was beyond the analytic scope; outcomes of these subgroups have been characterized previously. 29,30 This population also predates the increasing use of immune checkpoint inhibitors and other targeted therapies for advanced UCB management. The strength of this study rests on the well-curated clinical information on patients with UCB undergoing RC from a prospectively maintained database.…”
