RESUMEN
Adenocarcinoma of the bladder is a rare histologic variant representing only 0.5-2 % of bladder cancer. We report the case of 83-year old male patient who consulted for gross hematuria evolving for one month.CT scan showed a 3-cm tumor of the anterior wall of the bladder.The patient underwent transurthral resection of the bladder tumor. Histological examination concluded in a bladder adenocarcinoma with intestinal-type glands with no invasion of the bladder muscle. Multidisciplinary staff decided follow-up by cystoscopy. Primary bladder adenocarcinomas are very rare, their pathogenesis is not well known, and some risk factors have been suggested.
