Nephrogenic adenoma in a bladder diverticulum.
Nephrogenic adenoma is a rare proliferative response of urothelium to chronic irritation or infection. It has been reported to occur in various locations in the urinary tract, including the renal pelvis, ureter, bladder and urethra, and within an ileal conduit. We report our experience with this lesion occurring in a bladder diverticulum.
