Abstract
We present the case of a 45-year-old gentleman who presented with gross hematuria and underwent radical cystectomy, leading to an unexpected post-operative diagnosis of primary neuroendocrine tumor of the urinary bladder. This case underscores the diagnostic challenges associated with this rare malignancy and emphasizes the importance of considering neuroendocrine tumors in the differential diagnosis of bladder neoplasms. We discuss the clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, surgical intervention, and post-operative management of this unique case.
