OBJECTIVE: To report a case of squamous cellcarcinoma of the bladder, an uncommon tumor type, that presentedwith wide calcified areas. The literature on calcified bladder tumorsis reviewed with special reference to the diagnostic aspects.METHODS/RESULTS: The plain film, US and CT findings arepresented. All the diagnostic imaging techniques demonstratedcalcifications on the tumor surface and the characteristic curvilinearshape of this lesion.CONCLUSIONS: Calcified bladder carcinoma is rare and occursin only 0.5% of the cases evaluated by conventional radiology. Allcalcifications probably arising in the bladder detected on conventionalradiological evaluation should be studied further with other imagingtechniques. If its etiology is unclear, cystoscopy with biopsy and/ora microbiological study should be performed.
