We report a rare case of a 26-year-old patient presented with 3-week history of frank haematuria and suprapubic discomfort. Investigations revealed a tumour arising from the bladder wall and histology demonstrated cystitis glandularis. The literature review highlights the rarity of cystitis glandularis presented in such manner. Our radiographic and endoscopic images can also assist future diagnosis of the condition especially in patients in such age groups.
We report the case of a 76-year-old patient with a past medical history of low-grade chronic lymphocytic leukaemia who presented with severe chronic bladder symptoms attributed to interstitial cystitis. She underwent cystectomy and ileal conduit formation after the failure of all conventional treatment. Bladder histopathology revealed primary splenic marginal zone lymphoma. Literature review shows the rarity of such non-hematopoietic visceral metastases. This may represent the first reported splenic marginal zone lymphoma with bladder involvement and highlights the clinical and histological similarities with interstitial cystitis.
We report a rare case of a 70-year-old patient who presented with undifferentiated malignant teratoma arising from a solitary testis. The literature review highlights the rarity of such tumour in this age group, and this may represent the oldest reported patient with non seminomatous germ cell tumour of testicle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
