Micropapillary Pattern in Urothelial Carcinoma: A Clinicopathological Analysis

Abstract

Awareness of pathologists about MPP and its highly possible relation with aggressive behavior must be raised, as it may be more common than reported. A multicentric review of a large number of cases with MPP is needed for a better definition of its biological behavior. Focal MPP cases may have a better prognosis but this needs to be confirmed.
