Abstract
Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of
endometrial tissue in the ectopic foci outside the uterus.Usual
sites of its occurence are ovaries, uterine ligaments, fallopian
tubes, rectum and cervico-vaginal regions. Urinary tract is
a rare site of occurence and accounts for 1-2% cases.84%
of cases in urinary tract occur in urinary bladder. We report
a case of urinary bladder endometriosis in a 35 years old
female patient who presented with cyclical pain and
hematuria with a mass in right posterolateral wall of the
urinary bladder.
