R L Fein, L Winton, R R Gomez

    The Journal of Urology
    |September 1, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary

    This case report details bladder stones within a rare tumor of cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis. This unique presentation required surgical intervention for stone removal and tumor resection.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis are benign inflammatory conditions of the bladder.
    • Bladder calculi (stones) are common, but their association with these specific inflammatory masses is rare.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with acute right epididymitis, with imaging revealing two large bladder calculi.
    • Cystoscopy identified a bladder mass encasing the stones, initially suspected to be adenocarcinoma.
    • The mass weighed 15 grams and was composed of cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination confirmed the mass was benign cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis, not malignancy.
    • The bladder calculi were successfully removed along with the tumor via transurethral resection and cystolitholapaxy.

  • Literature review found no similar reported cases of calculi within this specific type of bladder tumor.
  • Implications:

    • This case highlights a rare clinical presentation requiring differentiation from bladder cancer.
    • Understanding this association is crucial for accurate diagnosis and appropriate surgical management.
    • Further investigation may be warranted to understand the pathogenesis of calculi formation within these specific bladder lesions.
