Histopathology, EarlyView.Non‐invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas with minor high‐grade component are not associated with a more indolent behavior and should likely be regarded as high‐grade carcinomas. Aims The latest WHO edition proposed using a cut‐off of ≥5% high‐grade component (%HGc) as a criterion to label non‐invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas as high‐grade ...
