Introduction: Small cell carcinoma of the bladder is a rare neoplasm, which can coexist many times with an urothelial carcinoma. It occurs mainly in males in the seventh and eighth decades of life. Macroscopically it is observed as a solid and polypoid mass and microscopically it is conformed by atypical cells with hyperchromatic nuclei and a high mitotic rate. Case: A 56-year-old man, smoker who has hematuria for six months, and dysuria and difficulty to urinate. In a cystocopy a bladder tumor is identified and a radical cistoprostectomy is performed. Discusion: Small cell vesical carcinoma is uncommon and may coexist with urothelial carcinoma. The anatomical pathological study is fundamental to determine the diagnosis, requiring immunohistochemical markers such as synaptophysin, CD56, chromogranin and enolase. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation are used to provide a multidisciplinary treatment of the disease.
