Abstract

The reporting recommendations on "flat and papillary urothelial neoplasia," published in 2 position articles by the Genitourinary Pathology Society in July 2021, was a collective contribution of 38 multidisciplinary experts aiming to clarify nomenclature, classification of flat and papillary urothelial neoplasia and controversial issues. In this review, we discuss some of these recommendations including nomenclature, practical approaches, and their importance for clinical practice.
