Retroperitoneal masses can cause urinary issues. This case highlights intestinal duplication as a rare cause of a relapsing retrovesical mass, emphasizing varied etiologies.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Retroperitoneal masses present a diverse etiology, encompassing both benign and malignant conditions.
  • These masses can lead to significant urinary symptoms through compression of the bladder or ureters.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with a recurrent retrovesical mass exhibiting cystic characteristics.
  • The mass's location posterior to the bladder (retrovesical) and its relapsing nature were key clinical features.

Findings:

  • Pathoanatomical examination definitively diagnosed the retrovesical mass as an intestinal duplication.
  • This finding underscores intestinal duplication as a rare, yet significant, differential diagnosis for retroperitoneal masses.

Implications:
