Abstract

Background: Non-epithelial bladder neoplasms are rare, and there are only approximately 250 cases of bladder leiomyoma reported in the English literature. We present a case of bladder leiomyoma in a patient with recurrent acute cystitis.

Case presentation: A 53-year-old woman presented to a local clinic with frequent urination and dysuria and was diagnosed with acute cystitis. Her symptoms temporarily improved after taking oral antibiotics, but then flared up repeatedly. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a bladder neck leiomyoma and multiple uterine fibroids. Her body mass index was 27.0 kg/m2. The patient successfully underwent transurethral resection of the tumor. The histopathological diagnosis was bladder leiomyoma.

Conclusion: There have been few cases of bladder leiomyoma coexisting with urinary tract infection and uterine fibroids. Our findings suggest that female hormones, which might increase body weight and cause fatty liver, are associated with the growth of bladder leiomyomas. If a patient has recurrent urinary tract infection, a bladder leiomyoma should be included in the differential diagnoses.

膀胱平滑肌瘤伴复发性膀胱炎1例报告。
背景:非上皮性膀胱肿瘤是罕见的,在英文文献中仅报道了大约250例膀胱平滑肌瘤。我们报告一例复发性急性膀胱炎患者的膀胱平滑肌瘤。病例介绍:一名53岁女性因尿频和排尿困难到当地诊所就诊,被诊断为急性膀胱炎。服用口服抗生素后,她的症状暂时好转,但随后又反复发作。增强计算机断层扫描显示膀胱颈部平滑肌瘤和多个子宫肌瘤。体重指数为27.0 kg/m2。病人成功地接受了经尿道肿瘤切除术。病理诊断为膀胱平滑肌瘤。结论:膀胱平滑肌瘤合并尿路感染和子宫肌瘤病例较少。我们的研究结果表明,可能增加体重并导致脂肪肝的女性激素与膀胱平滑肌瘤的生长有关。如果患者有复发性尿路感染,膀胱平滑肌瘤应列入鉴别诊断。
