Abstract
Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma is an undifferentiated carcinoma with histological features similar to undifferentiated, non-keratinizing carcinoma of the nasopharynx. Lymphoepithelioma- like carcinoma of the urinary bladder is uncommon with a reported incidence of 0.4% -1.3% of all bladder cancers. This case describes an 80 years old Egyptian male patient presented with recurrent hematuria and necroturia. Cystoscopy revealed a tumor involving the
left lateral and the posterior wall of the urinary bladder. The patient underwent transurethral resection of the bladder tumor. Pathological examination showed muscle invasive lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma associated with schistosomiasis of the urinary bladder. To the best of our knowledge the association of schistosomiasis with lymphoepithelioma–like bladder cancer was not described in the literature before this case report
