Abstract
A case of transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder in a patient infected with the human immunodeficiency virus is reported. The tumour was very large, occupying most of the bladder, however cystoscopic removal of the tumour was successful with no recurrence after one year. This association has never reported before. The possible contribution of human immunodeficiency virus infection to its occurrence is discussed.
