Abstract

Objective: the presence of non-habitual cells in urinary sediment calls for further studies of urine cytology, ultrasound, and cystoscopy with biopsy. Case presentation: urothelial carcinoma is the most frequent neoplasm in the urinary tract. The elemental and urinary sediment analysis is usually not used as a test of diagnostic value, but in some cases, it can provide relevant information. A case of a 74-year-old patient who was diagnosed with high grade urothelial carcinoma after routine analytical testing is presented here. Conclusions: The importance of urinary sediment testing can’t be underestimated. The observer’s experience can facilitate early diagnosis and improve the patient’s quality of life.
