Abstract

We report the case of a single patient suffering of a primary signet-ring cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder. This histological subtype of primary bladder cancer is very rare. We thus want to emphasize on its pathological specificity in order to improve the postoperative strategic treatment, knowing it is a rare but very aggressive kind of tumor.
