Contribution of a case report of vesical small cell carcinoma (SCC) seen at our Centre and managed with partial cystectomy and systemic chemotherapy (CMT) with M-VAC. SCC is an uncommon neoplasia of the bladder usually associated with an aggressive behaviour. The effectiveness of radical surgery has not been demonstrated, so a conservative treatment was chosen which has allowed to preserve a high quality of life until now, 36 months after diagnosis. The studies of local and distant relapses show no signs of residual disease.
