“…Isolated case reports have appeared since then (Table 2). 2, 4–41 Hemangioma of the urinary bladder occurs in all age groups and usually is observed in patients age < 30 years, with a slight male predominance. The most common symptom is macroscopic hematuria; other symptoms include irritative voiding symptoms and abdominal pain.…”

BACKGROUND Hemangioma of the urinary bladder is rare and the long term outcome of patients is unknown. METHODS The authors evaluated the clinical and pathologic findings in 19 patients with a vesical hemangioma. All patients were treated at the Mayo Clinic between 1932–1998 and had histologic confirmation of the diagnosis. Hemangioma was classified into cavernous, capillary, or arteriovenous types based on conventional criteria from other sites. Clinical information was obtained from chart review. The mean follow‐up of the patients was 6.9 years (range, 0.3–25 years). RESULTS The mean patient age at the time of diagnosis was 58 years (range, 19–76 years) and the male‐to‐female ratio was 3.7:1. Patients typically presented with macroscopic hematuria and endoscopic findings usually were nonspecific. The diagnosis of hemangioma was suspected in 3 patients (16%) prior to biopsy. There was a predilection for the posterior and lateral walls and the tumor usually was small (range, 0.2–3 cm; median, 0.7 cm) and solitary. The histologic types of hemangioma were cavernous (15 cases), capillary (2 cases), and arteriovenous (2 cases). All patients were treated with biopsy with or without fulguration, except for one patient who was treated with a partial cystectomy. No patients developed a recurrence during a mean follow‐up of 6.9 years. CONCLUSIONS Patients with hemangioma of the urinary bladder have a favorable outcome. Biopsy and fulguration are effective for hemangioma of the bladder when the lesion is small. Cancer 1999;86:498–504. © 1999 American Cancer Society.

“…A definitive preopertative diagnosis can usually be achieved through arteriography of the internal iliac arteries [6]. Treatment of hemangioma in the bladder and prostate has varied from electrocautery, Nd-YAG laser to radiation or in cases of periprostatic hemangioma with selective arterial embolization [5,7,8]. In our case hemangioma was located in the prostatic tissue.…”

Hemangioma of the prostate - an unusual cause of lower urinary tract symptoms: Case report

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

BackgroundHemangioma of the prostate gland is extremely rare and only a few cases have been reported. There have been several cases of hemangioma of posterior urethra, urinary bladder and periprostatic plexus in the literature, all presenting with hematuria or hematospermia. Diagnosis of prostatic hemangioma is difficult due to its rarity and unspecific symptoms such as hematuria, hematospermia or lower urinary tract symptoms. It cannot be detected by conventional examinations such as cystoscopy or standard rectal ultrasonography.Case presentationWe present a case of prostatic hemangioma in an 84-year old male presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms. Bleeding has not been a feature in our case and diagnosis was not made until after operation. The patient was treated as a case of bladder neck outflow obstruction with transurethral resection of prostate gland and simultaneous bladder neck incisions. A period of self-catheterization was instituted due to postoperative urinary retention as the result of detrusor insufficiency.ConclusionHemangioma of prostate gland is extremely rare and symptomatic prostatic hemangioma should be treated either by transurethral resection of prostate or laser evaporation.
