【 摘 要 】

Sarcomatoid carcinomas of the bladder represent a tiny part of bladder tumors and are characterized by a high potential for malignancy. Very aggressive and affecting mainly men, these tumors present both a urothelial and sarcomatoid contingent. The treatment of these tumors is not well codified given the rarity of cases reported in the literature, however, it seems that the treatment is essentially based on radical cystectomy with extensive pelvic lymph node dissection. We report the experience of our departement in the management of this type of tumor in a series of five cases collected over a period of 8 years.
