Cystitis glandularis occurring in neurofibromatosis.
A case of cystitis glandularis occurring concurrently with a neurilemmoma of low malignant potential in a patient with neurofibromatosis is presented. The co-existence of these two conditions made it difficult to distinguish between local recurrence of the neurilemmoma and malignant change in the cystitis glandularis. Repeated biopsies were required to solve this problem. The pathological and radiological features are described.
