Objective:
To report 2 cases of an extremely rare bladder tumor such as Cystitis Glandularis (CG) that were management by different strategies and review the current evidence.
Material And Methods:
Both cases of 43 and 48 years reported the same lower urinary tract symptoms that simulated a malignant bladder tumor. Case 1 presented with an extensive tumor affecting the trigone and the left upper urinary tract; the second case presented a less extensive tumor also at the bladder trigone.
Results:
The first patient required two bladder tumor resection and a laparoscopic uretero-vesical reimplantation with adyuvant steroids. The other patient only required one bladder tumor resection without adyuvant treatment. Finally, after 7 and 6 months, both patients do not present tumor recurrence; respectively.
Conclusion:
Cystitis Glandularis (CG) represent an extremely rare tumor. Usually presentation is in young people with predilection at the bladder trigone. Current evidence ruled out being preneoplastic without standardized treatment. Two cases were analyzed with completely different characteristics, but with satisfactory treatment.
