Item Idiopathic spontaneous rupture of bile duct.(1999-02-14) Shivananda, M; Siddaraju, M L; Siddappa, S; Gayathri, PItem An unusual case of non-disseminated bladder aspergillosis in a setting of transitional cell carcinoma.(2012-01) Siddappa, S; Mythri, K M; Kowsalya, R; Shivalingaiah, MA bladder infection of Aspergillus with no evidence of dissemination is rare. We present a case of Aspergillus infection with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder without any evidence of systemic involvement. A 65-year-old male diabetic whose main complaints were intermittent painful haematuria and nocturia had undergone nephroureterectomy a year and a half back for transitional cell carcinoma of right renal pelvis. Cystoscopy revealed bladder mucosa having fixed broad tumour with encrustation and bleeding on touch at the right vesico-ureteric junction. The histopathologic diagnosis was a high-grade transitional carcinoma with Aspergillus infection. Fungal culture of urine obtained after bladder wash yielded Aspergillus fumigatus.
