ABSTRACT = {Mucinous cystadenocarcinomas of the urachus are rare. 
Mucinous benign or premalignant tumors are even rarer, 
yet pose a challenge in diagnosis and management. We 
report a case of a 66-year-old man with lower abdominal 
pain who had a large cystic tumor at the dome of the 
bladder. En-bloc resection of the tumor with partial 
cystectomy revealed mucinous cystadenocarcinoma in situ. 
We reviewed the characteristics of all seven previously 
reported cases. These tumors are pre-malignant and 
can cause significant morbidity and mortality. They 
need to be treated similar to conventional mucinous 
cystadenocarcinoma by wide surgical resection and partial 
cystectomy.},
