Résumé

Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer in Canada. While
most patients present with transitional cell carcinoma, few present
with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Risk factors for SCC include
a history of chronic urinary tract infection, urothelial inflammation
and indwelling catheters. We present the management of a patient
with locally advanced SCC of the bladder.
