Abstract
Urachal cancer (UrC) is a rare but aggressive cancer. Due to overlapping histomorphology, discrimination of urachal from primary bladder adenocarcinomas (PBAC) and adenocarcinomas secondarily involving the bladder (particularly colorectal adenocarcinomas, CRC) can be challenging. Therefore, we aimed to give an overview of helpful (immunohistochemical) biomarkers and clinicopathological factors in addition to survival analyses and included institutional data from 12 urachal adenocarcinomas. A PubMed search yielded 319 suitable studies since 1930 in the English literature with 1984 cases of UrC including 1834 adenocarcinomas (92%) and 150 nonadenocarcinomas (8%). UrC was more common in men (63%), showed a median age at diagnosis of 50.8 years and a median tumor size of 6.0 cm. No associations were noted for overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) and clinicopathological factors beside a favorable PFS in male patients (p = 0.047). The immunohistochemical markers found to be potentially helpful in the differential diagnostic situation are AMACR and CK34βE12 (UrC versus CRC and PBAC), CK7, β-Catenin and CD15 (UrC and PBAC versus CRC), and CEA and GATA3 (UrC and CRC versus PBAC). Serum markers like CEA, CA19-9 and CA125 might additionally be useful in the follow-up and monitoring of UrC.

Abstract
Renal transplantation involving anatomically or functionally altered recipient urinary reservoirs is a challenging procedure. Initial reports discouraged kidney transplantation in patients with urinary diversion due to inferior outcomes. However, more recent studies have shown that although there are more infectious complications, patients with urinary diversions have comparable long-term graft survival with those with native anatomy. Careful preoperative assessment of these candidates is mandatory. Unique technical and surgical concepts must be considered before embarking on transplanting this specific cohort of kidney transplantation candidates.

Abstract
Intra-abdominal mucinous cystic tumors can be difficult to diagnose preoperatively. We report a case of histologically diagnosed primary urachal adenocarcinoma: a rare type of bladder tumor. This case report is interesting for clinicians. The patient was an 86-year-old man who presented with acute abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed a large cystic mass with calcification, near the apex of the urinary bladder. Laparotomy revealed a large intra-abdominal cystic mass adherent to the anterior abdominal wall and superior to the urinary bladder. We performed laparoscopic-assisted resection and partial cystectomy. The cystic mass measured approximately 15 × 14 × 11 cm and contained mucinous material. Histological examination revealed that it extended to the muscle of the bladder wall and that its epithelium was composed of atypical cells with increased papillary morphology. The mucinous material was glycoprotein with degenerative fatty tissue, and calcification was recognized partly in the specimen. Thus, we comprehensively diagnosed a mucinous cystic adenocarcinoma of urachal origin.
