title: [Pseudotumoral cystitis].
abstract: Radio-endoscopic examination in a personal series of 27 patients was suggestive of a tumoral lesion not confirmed by histopathology. Etiology of the inflammatory process was not always clearly apparent, without the guarantee offered by examination of permanent sections of endoscopic or surgical specimens, the presence of a masked cancer remained a possibility: in exceptional cases an inappropriate total cystectomy had been performed.
