Abstract

Bladder carcinoma is the most common tumor of the urinary system. More than 90 % of malignant bladder cancers are transi- tional cell tumors. Non-transitional tumors of the bladder account for 5-7 % of all blad- der tumors; 3 % squamous cell carcinoma, 2 % adenocarcinoma, 1 % indifferentiated car- cinoma and, more rarely, small cell carcino- mas and lymphoma. Primary lymphoma of the bladder is very rare. Although rare these tumors should be kept in mind by urologists and should be considered in unusual blad- der masses. In this article, we present a case of primary bladder lymphoma who was oper- ated with a preliminary diagnosis of bladder tumor.

Keywords: Marginal zone lymphoma, Bladder cancer, Positron emission tomogra- phy
