%X Aim: Globally, primary adenocarcinoma (AC) accounts for only 0.5% - 2% of bladder cancer (BC). Bilharziasis predisposes to AC in ~10% of BC
in endemic regions. The aim was to study the clinicopathologic characteristics
of this rare entity and define prognostic elements influencing disease-free (DFS) & overall survival (OS). Patients & Methods:
A retrospective analysis of 42 cases of primary bladder AC presented to the
National Cancer Institute of Egypt (NCI-E) during a five-year period (2010-2014),
clinicopathologic profiles, management and survival were assessed. Results: The mean age was 55.5 years
¡À 9.77 with male predominance. Hematuria, bilharziasis
& urachal type experienced in 88%, 35.7% & 4.8%, respectively. Radical surgery was employed in 64.3%.
Metastatic disease (stageIVB) found in 14.3%,
