Squamous cell carcinoma of bladder is uncommon tumor is defined as
a malignant tumor derived from the urothelium that shows a pure
squamous cell element. When urothelial elements (including urothelial
carcinoma) are present the tumor should be classified as urothelial
carcinoma with squamous differentiation. Almost all squamous cell
carcinoma of the bladder are already advanced at the time of diagnosis
so in general, the prognosis is poor. We report a case of pure squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)

was confirmed by histopathological study.
