Our paper has been accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pathology on April 20, 2011 and published in the 2nd issue (May) of 2013, which is approximately 2 years aft er the acceptance date. Therefore newly published cases of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) of the bladder in this time period of two years did not appear on the review table of our article. However aft er careful investigation of the English literature, we noticed that articles published by Bertaccini A et al.[2] in 2008 and Lee W et al.[3] in 2009 were not presented in our table.
We preferred to include and specify both pure and mixed forms of this tumor in our table in order to better understand the behaviour of this very rare tumor as many of these cases were reported to have mixed histology.
Yours sincerely
Ayşegül SARI
