[Bladder diverticulum at an atypical site].
An atypically located diverticulum of the bladder was found in five anatomical dissection specimens. The diverticulum with a depth of about 1-3 cm developed in the bladder's lateral wall. The diverticulum seems to be caused by a strong fibrous cord originating from the bladder's wall and penetrating the canalis obturatorius. Within the channel the cord is anchored by a voluminous fat body. Histologically the wall of the diverticulum reveals typical signs of chronic inflammation.
