Subsequently, partial cystectomy was performed to remove the tumor. Immunohistochemical examination indicated a diagnosis of endosalpingiosis involving endometriosis. The concept of endosalpingiosis was proposed in 1930, and only 9 cases of urinary bladder endosalpingiosis have been reported worldwide. Surgical procedures such as transurethral resection and partial cystectomy were performed in all reported cases. None of the reported cases, including the present case, showed recurrence |
