AB  - Non-urothelial neoplasms of the bladder account for less
than 5% of all bladder tumors. Sarcoma constitutes the
most usual mesenchymal malignancy of the bladder, with
leiomyosarcomas being the most common type of sarcoma
in adults. A coexistence of this rare tumor with another
malignancy has not been reported, to our knowledge. This
report demonstrates a case of high-grade bladder
leiomyosarcoma cancer with prostate cancer in a 72-yearold patient. The most striking features of this case include
the rapid disease progression that confirms the highly
aggressive nature of this uncommon disease.
