ABSTRACT
Inverted urothelial papilloma (IUP) is a benign neoplasm characterized by a downgrowth of the urothelium beneath the surface of morphologically normal urothelial cells; however, the molecular features of IUP and their association with clinicopathological characteristics are unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mutational landscape, clinicopathological features, genotype-phenotype associations, and spread patterns of IUP. We performed targeted next-generation sequencing of 39 consecutive IUP cases, the largest series investigated to date, and identified oncogenic driver mutations in RAS family genes in 34 cases (87%). HRAS mutations were the most prevalent (28 cases), which included Q61R (15 cases), followed by KRAS (5 cases) and NRAS (1 case) mutations. Characteristic mutations observed in urothelial carcinoma, including those in FGFR3 , TP53 , or the TERT promoter, were absent. HRAS -mutated IUPs were associated with a history of smoking ( P = 0.017) and streaming morphology ( P < 0.001), corresponding to the trabecular subtype. In contrast, all KRAS -mutated IUPs occurred in never-smoking patients ( P = 0.001) and showed cystic changes in morphology ( P = 0.005), corresponding to the glandular subtype. RAS Q61R immunohistochemistry visually revealed the neoplastic nature of the overlying cells and distinct spread patterns of IUP cells within the surface, including pseudoinfiltrative spread. No recurrence or carcinoma development was observed in any of the IUP cases during the follow-up period. Thus, we confirmed the importance of RAS pathway activation in IUP pathogenesis, an association between RAS family gene mutations and IUP subtypes, and the spread patterns of IUP cells within the surface.
