•We present a protocol for the isolation and freeze-fracturing of extracellular vesicles (EVs) originating from cancerous urothelial cells. The freeze-fracture technique revealed the EVs' diameter and shape and-as a unique feature-the internal organization of the EV membranes. These are of immense importance in understanding how EVs interact with the recipient membranes.
