Abstract

CASE REPORT A 63-year-old man presented with suprapubic pain, terminal dribbling, a suprapubic mass, and microscopic hematuria. Flexible cystoscopy showed a mass in the dome of the bladder (Figure 1). Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a cystic mass in the dome of the bladder, but separated from the bladder with fluid, debris, and nodularity within the abdomen and the pelvis. The patient underwent laparotomy, where extensive PMP was discovered. Thereafter, he underwent partial cystectomy, omentectomy with excision of the tumor.
