We present a case of a large postoperative pseudosarcomatous bladder tumour and review the literature for this exceptional benign tumour. Several lesions, especially leiomyosarcoma, must be discussed. Immunohistochemical studies are helpful. The evolution is always benign, even with an incomplete tumour ablation.

Reactive spindle cell nodules (RSCNs) that occur after fine needle aspiration (FNA) are commonly documented in the literature. They are benign proliferation of spindle cells with some mitotic figures and nuclear pleomorphism that arise after tissue injuries like FNA. These lesions are non-capsulated and surrounded by parenchyma of organ tissue.

Aim: Postoperative spindle cell nodule (PSCN) is a pseudosarcomatous proliferative lesion of unclear molecular genetic origins.
Methods And Results: We examined seven patients with PSCN, using routine haematoxylin-eosin (H&E) slide preparations and a series of immunostains. The latter targeted keratin, vimentin, α-smooth muscle actin (SMA), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK [D5F3]), and other proteins.

Introduction: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an extremely rare disease with a high misdiagnosis rate and a potentially malignant biologic nature. We have collected and analyzed data from 18 SFT patients to provide a deeper insight into this uncommon disease entity.
Methods: In our study, 18 patients who had undergone surgery between April 2014 and December 2021 for the diagnosis of SFT were evaluated.

A broad spectrum of lesions, including hyperplastic, metaplastic, inflammatory, infectious, and reactive, may mimic cancer all along the urinary tract. This narrative collects most of them from a clinical and pathologic perspective, offering urologists and general pathologists their most salient definitory features. Together with classical, well-known, entities such as urothelial papillomas (conventional (UP) and inverted (IUP)), nephrogenic adenoma (NA), polypoid cystitis (PC), fibroepithelial polyp (FP), prostatic-type polyp (PP), verumontanum cyst (VC), xanthogranulomatous inflammation (XI), reactive changes secondary to BCG instillations (BCGitis), schistosomiasis (SC), keratinizing desquamative squamous metaplasia (KSM), post-radiation changes (PRC), vaginal-type metaplasia (VM), endocervicosis (EC)/endometriosis (EM) (müllerianosis), malakoplakia (MK), florid von Brunn nest proliferation (VB), cystitis/ureteritis cystica (CC), and glandularis (CG), among others, still other cellular proliferations with concerning histological features and poorly understood etiopathogenesis like IgG4-related disease (IGG4), PEComa (PEC), and pseudosarcomatous myofibroblastic proliferations (post-operative spindle cell nodule (POS), inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT)), are reviewed.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a distinct pseudosarcomatous lesion arising in the soft tissues and interior organs of children and young adults. It is rarely seen in adults. It was first described in lungs.
