Extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma following augmentation enterocystoplasty.
Tumours developing after urinary tract or bladder reconstruction with intestinal tissue have well been described. Adenocarcinomas and transitional cell carcinomas are the most frequent histological features. We report here a case of small cell carcinoma developing after augmentation enterocystoplasty. This rare observation is an opportunity to review the literature about extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma and tumours developing after uro-intestinal reconstruction surgery.
