Epithelial metaplasia

  • Squamous metaplasia
    • Often has a knobby appearance and is covered by white, flaky, easily disrupted material lying on the trigone.
    • ≈40% of women and 5% of men have squamous metaplasia of the bladder, which is usually related to infection, trauma, or surgery; a normal finding in premenopausal females
  • Glandular metaplasia
    • Appears as clumps of raised red areas that appear inflammatory
    • Often confused for cancer
  • No treatment is needed

Leukoplakia

  • Similar to squamous metaplasia with the addition of keratin deposition that appears as a white flaky substance floating in the bladder
  • No treatment is needed

Urothelial papilloma

  • Composed of delicate stalks lined by normal-appearing urothelium
  • Papillomas may recur, but do not progress or invade

Inverted papilloma

  • Associated with chronic inflammation or bladder outlet obstruction
  • Can be located throughout the bladder but most commonly on the trigone
  • 1% incidence of tumor recurrence, but do not progress or invade
  • Transurethral resection is the treatment

Nephrogenic Adenoma

  • Rare
  • Caused by chronic irritation of the urothelium; also associated with trauma, previous surgery, renal transplantation, intravesical chemotherapy, stones, catheters, and infection

Cystitis Cystica and Glandularis

  • Common finding in normal bladders
  • Usually associated with inflammation or chronic obstruction
  • Cystitis glandularis may be associated with pelvic lipomatosis
  • Few case reports of cystitis cystica or glandularis transforming into adenocarcinoma, and therefore regular endoscopic evaluation of patients with these entities is recommended

Leiomyoma

  • Occur most commonly in women of childbearing age
  • Surgical resection is required if the leiomyoma is large or painful

Endometriosis

  • Can be treated with hormones, TUR, or partial cystectomy
