Sumario:Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) was characterized by epithelial neoplastic cells developing in solid or incohesive sheets mixed with a noticeable lymphoid infiltration. Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the bladder (LELCB), which was first described by Zukerberg, is a rare variant of LELC. Here we reported a new case of LELCB occurring in a 70-year-old woman presenting with hematuria. Computed tomography (CT) and cystoscopy revealed a tumor on the left upper wall of the bladder. A partial cystectomy was finally performed. Pathological and immunohistochemical analysis revealed LELCB. After receiving systemic adjuvant chemotherapy, the patient conducted a 25-month follow-up without experiencing a recurrence.
