title: [Bladder endometriosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe an additional case of endometriosis of the bladder and to review the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A case of endometriosis of the bladder in a 30-year-old female with a long history of dysuria, pollakiuria and suprapubic pain during menstruation is described. The endoscopic findings indicated endometriosis of the bladder. Gn-Rh analogues and anovulatories were administered, but were poorly tolerated. Resection of the bladder endometrioma was performed. The patient is asymptomatic at two years' follow-up.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Transurethral resection of the endometriotic plaque may be a valid therapeutic option in selected cases of endometriosis of the bladder.
