    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Nonabsorbable sutures are used in various surgical procedures.
    • Delayed complications from surgical materials are uncommon but possible.

    Observation:

    • A case presented with a lesion resembling a bladder wall neoplasm.
    • The lesion was identified as a large suture granuloma.

    Findings:

    • Suture granulomas are a rare, delayed complication following surgery.
    • These granulomas can present as masses that mimic neoplastic lesions.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering suture granulomas in the differential diagnosis of bladder lesions.
    • Awareness of this rare complication is crucial for accurate diagnosis and patient management.
