Primary osteogenic sarcoma of the bladder. Case report and review of the literature

Abstract

Primary osteogenic sarcoma of the bladder is an extremely rare disease. Fewer than 30 cases of tumors of the bladder containing bone or cartilage have been reported. Only 14 cases of well-documented primary osteogenic sarcoma of the bladder appear in the world's literature. The authors describe the first detailed description of such a patient treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy as well as provide a review of this rare and interesting entity.
