Abstract
CRUZ GUERRA, Nicolás Alberto et al. Mullerianosis of the urinary bladder: a rare entity. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2009, vol.62, n.2, pp.150-152. ISSN 0004-0614.
Objectives: To report a new case of bladder mullerianosis. Method: We present the case of a 30 year old female patient with history of miscarriage, who refers voiding disturbances with menstruations. Vaginal ultrasound showed an exophytic bladder lesion, which was confirmed by cistoscopy. Endoscopic resection was indicated. Results: The pathological study of tissues obtained showed mixed glandular structures with predominant tubaric-like type, in association with endometrial- and endocervical-like elements. No evidence of endoscopic relapse after one year of follow-up. Conclusions: We contribute with a new case of bladder mullerianosis. We emphasize the scarcity of its published reports. We support the option of an endoscopic surgery for these patients.
