Hematologic neoplasms with initial manifestations in lower urinary tract.
Hematologic tumors with initial clinical manifestations in the lower urinary tract are exceedingly rare. Six such cases are reported. Four of these were lymphomas, 2 involving the urinary bladder, 1 the urethra, and 1 the right ureter. The remaining 2 were an extramedullary plasmacytoma and a granulocytic sarcoma, both located in the urinary bladder. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of granulocytic sarcoma of the urinary bladder presenting with urologic symptoms.
