چکیده

Sarcomatoid bladder carcinoma is a high-grade neoplasm and accounts for approximately 0,3% of all bladder malignancies. Sarcomatoid carcinoma originates from transitional cells of the bladder. Sarcomatoid carcinoma is charactericed by a epithelial component and a sarcomatoid component, consisting of spindle cells, that is only epithelial marker-positive.
