Bladder calculi enveloped by extensive cystitis glandularis: case report.
We report a case of 2 large calculi encased within a 15 gm. tumor of cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis. The patient presented with acute right epididymitis. An excretory urogram showed 2 bladder calculi. Cystoscopy revealed a mass around the stones resembling adenocarcinoma of the bladder base. Transurethral resection of the tumor and cystolitholapaxy were performed. The final diagnosis was bladder calculi within a mass of cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis. A review of the literature failed to reveal a similar case.
