title: Bladder wall hamartoma: an unusual cause of urinary urgency and frequency.
abstract: We present a case of a 51-year-old woman with urinary urgency, frequency, and lower abdominal pain; she was found to have an anterior vaginal wall mass on examination. Ultrasound and computerized tomography revealed a complex solid cystic mass. Transvaginal partial cystectomy was performed; histologic examination revealed hamartoma of the urinary bladder.
