Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Gynecology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Vesical endometriosis involves endometrial tissue growth within the bladder.
  • Typically, lesions are small, but larger presentations are documented.

Observation:

  • Presents three cases of vesical endometriosis with significant intravesical lesions.
  • Radiographic findings in these cases were notably large and striking.

Findings:

  • The intravesical lesions in these cases were indistinguishable from bladder neoplasms.
  • Advanced imaging may not differentiate endometriosis from malignancy in these instances.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of considering endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of intravesical masses.
  • Emphasizes the need for careful diagnostic evaluation to avoid misdiagnosis of bladder cancer.
