Case in brief
A patient presented with a bladder tumor initially diagnosed as urothelial carcinoma following transurethral resection. After receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy with methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and cisplatin, the patient underwent radical cystoprostatectomy. Pathological examination revealed the tumor to be adamantinoma-like Ewing sarcoma, with no residual urothelial carcinoma detected.
Diagnostic / clinical pearl
Clinicians should consider the possibility of rare neoplasms like adamantinoma-like Ewing sarcoma in atypical bladder tumors, especially when initial diagnoses do not align with treatment responses.
