[Clinicopathological correlation in bladder endometriosis].
Bladder endometriosis is a rare site of a disease with very polymorphic clinical signs. The authors report the case of a 30-year-old woman operated for bladder endometriosis who presented with recent menstrual macroscopic haematuria with primary infertility and deep dyspareunia. Histological examination demonstrated bladder endometriosis sparing the urothelium. Comparison with our histological series of bladder endometriosis demonstrated polymorphic lesions ranging from integrity to complete loss of the bladder mucosa, with no correlation with clinical features.
