Non-Functional Bladder Paraganglioma: A Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Paragangliomas of the urinary bladder are rare extra-adrenal tumours. A 45-year-old male complaint of single episode of painless gross hematuria without any micturitional attacks. Ultrasonography and Computed tomography scan revealed a well-defined solid mass in urinary bladder wall. Cystoscopy revealed a protruding lobulated brownish bladder mass with normal smooth mucosa for which trans urethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) was done. Biopsy and Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of paraganglioma. The current report presents a non-functioning paraganglioma of the urinary bladder and emphasises on having high risk of suspicion on the abnormal cystoscopic finding for its diagnosis.
