Bladder hemangioma is a rare benign tumor occurring in any age group. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman having a bladder hemangioma. On cystoscopic examination no typical features of the bladder hemangioma were found. Biopsy of the lesion revealed a cavernous hemangioma. A partial cystectomy was performed for the control of macroscopic hematuria.

Chemokines play a key role in cancer processes, with CXCL1 being a well-studied example. Due to the lack of a complete summary of CXCL1's role in cancer in the literature, in this study, we examine the significance of CXCL1 in various cancers such as bladder, glioblastoma, hemangioendothelioma, leukemias, Kaposi's sarcoma, lung, osteosarcoma, renal, and skin cancers (malignant melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma), along with thyroid cancer. We focus on understanding how CXCL1 is involved in the cancer processes of these specific types of tumors.
