“…Dermoid cysts are rather rarely encountered in the urinary bladder. So far only 11 cases of dermoid cysts were reported to be seen within the urinary bladder (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14). However, only 9 of them were in English literature (4-6, 8, 9, 11-14).…”

“…Pilimiction, the passage of hair in urine, is a pathognomonic sign of urinary bladder dermoid. 7 Our case is a 17-year-old girl with a bladder teratoma and a chief complaint of hematuria, which is a very rare entity and, therefore, can pose a diagnostic problem.…”

BackgroundTeratomas are tumors consisting of two or three germ layers, seen commonly during childhood. Teratomas have been reported to occur in various sites and organs. Bladder teratoma is a very rare extragonadal tumor, moreover in adults. Although teratomas are known as benign lesions in childhood, they may act as malignant tumors when detected during adulthood. This requires total tumor resection, particularly in adult cases, and the addition of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in cases with the potential of malignancy.Case presentationA very rare case of teratoma of the bladder in a 17-year old Asian girl is presented. The patient had chief complaints of hematuria. The diagnosis was made on cystoscopy and confirmed histopathologically. Complete excision was possible. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first such case reported from Indonesia and the South East Asian region.ConclusionA bladder teratoma mimics the presentation of a bladder stone, clinically and radiologically. A dermoid cyst should be considered as a differential diagnosis, especially when the stone appears to be confined to the bladder wall during examination.

“…We managed our case with laparoscopic partial cystectomy with left oophorectomy. We removed the left ovary for completeness of removal to prevent recurrence as reported in previous cases 4. In literature, spillage and implantation of cyst components remained a potential criticism of laparoscopy 6.…”

Dermoid cysts are benign developmental lesions consisting of tissues of more than one germ cell lineage origin. The urinary bladder is a very rare location of dermoid cysts. We report a case of an 18-year-old woman who presented with suprapubic pain, dysuria and turbid urine. Blood and serum chemistry was normal. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed a heterogeneously enhancing mass of 2.5×2 cm within the urinary bladder infiltrating fundus of urinary bladder with extraluminal extension. At cystoscopy, an irregular mass arising from the dome of the urinary bladder with a covering of hair and whitish scales was seen. The patient was managed by transperitoneal laparoscopic partial cystectomy with left oophorectomy. Histology revealed dermoid cyst arising from the urinary bladder and simple serous cyst in the ovary. Postoperative course was uneventful.
