We present the case of a 41-year-old woman who presented with gross hematuria, urinary urgency and frequency, and intermittent abdominal pain after vaginal hysterectomy 2 years prior. The presence of an adnexal mass was suspected by pelvic examination and confirmed by transvaginal pelvic ultrasonography. Cystoscopy with biopsy was consistent with an inflammatory bladder polyp, which was initially discovered by pelvic ultrasonography and noted to be contiguous with the adnexal mass. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy, lysis of adhesions, left salpingoophorectomy, and transvesical resection of the bladder mass. Histology was consistent with ovarian abscess and chronic sinus tract formation that was contiguous with an inflammatory bladder polyp.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
