Eosinophilic Leukemoid Reaction with Eosinophilic Tumor Tissue Infiltration as an Extermely Poor Prognostic Factor in Urinary Bladder Cancer- a Known Entity Revisited.

We report a patient of high-grade urinary bladder cancer with eosinophilic leukemoid reaction and tumour histopathology demonstrated diffuse infiltration of eosinophils. Though the entity is described to carry a good prognosis in literature, our experience is totally different as the patient deteriorated rapidly in a matter of days, was deemed inoperable in view of worsening performance status and was referred for palliative management.
