“…Acquired diverticula are by far more common and are secondary to lower urinary tract obstruction, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, vesical neck contracture, urethral stricture or neurogenic bladder [4] . The most likely site of a diverticulum is in the area adjacent to the ureteral orifi ce where the longitudinal muscle fi bers are absent and outpouching is facilitated [1] .…”

Objectives: To report a case of a primary carcinoma arising in a vesical diverticulum. Clinical Presentation and Intervention: A 59-year-old male patient presented with painless macrohematuria. A primary carcinoma arising in a vesical diverticulum was detected with cystoscopy and confirmed with rectal endosonography and computer tomography. and radical cystoprostatovesiculectomy with ileal conduit was performed. Chemotherapy with cisplatin and methotrexate followed. The patient died of an acute cardiac event in the 4th postoperative month.Conclusion: This report illustrates that in a case of a closed opening of a bladder diverticulum, rectal endosonography and computer tomography do provide additional support for making a diagnosis of a hidden tumor in the diverticulum.

“…Acute urinary retention is rare [18]. It has been reported that there is a chronic inflammation in 37%-81% of diverticula cases [1,4,19,20].…”

“…CBD are not commonly found in children -an incidence of 1.7% was reported in a series of cases diagnosed by voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) [3] -but when they are found, they are seen more commonly in boys, with a predominance of 9:1 [4,5]. The exact etiology of CBD is not known, but they are thought to be formed by a primary defect in the Waldeyer fascia, which may be combined with an intrinsic weakness in the bladder wall [1,6,7].…”

Congenital bladder diverticula (CBD) are an outpouching of the mucosa through the muscular wall of the bladder. Large CBD may be presented with a serious urological problem in childhood. A 6-year-old boy was admitted with the complaint of recurrent urinary tract infection and urinary retention. Voiding cystourethrogram revealed a bilateral large CBD. Cystoscopy was performed before surgery to rule out bladder neck pathology, for direct visualization of diverticula, and to see the opening of the ureters. Transvesical diverticulectomy is a reliable technique for surgical treatment, if necessary, and can effectively be combined with the management of associated other pathology.

“…Bladder diverticula can be congenital or acquired, and the latter is common in middle age or older men because of the high incidence of urinary retention due to prostatic hyperplasia (2,3). Chronic bladder distention is a possible cause not only of giant bladder diverticula but also of syncope due to vagal enhancement (4), which has also been suggested as the mechanism of micturition syncope (5,6).…”

Syncope in a Patient with Giant Bladder Diverticulum

et al. 2012

Syncope is common in clinical practice, but the cause is often difficult to diagnose. We report a 75-yearold man who was referred to the emergency department because of syncope after an urgent sensation of urinating during jogging. He was finally diagnosed as having a giant bladder diverticulum due to prostatic hyperplasia accompanied by neurally mediated syncope. Excessive urinary retention is a possible cause of not only giant bladder diverticula but also syncope due to vagal enhancement.
