Abstract

Background. Endometriosis ranks third in the structure of gynecological morbidity in Russia. Genital endometriosis can be concurrent with urinary tract endometriosis in 1-2% of cases. Case report. The paper describes a case of a 39-year-old patient with bladder endometriosis, as well as ovarian endometrioma and a variant of deep infiltrating endometriosis, such as uterosacral ligament endometriosis in her history; she was operated on by a gynecologist and an urologist. Conclusion. The clinical case of bladder endometriosis is quite rare, which is characterized by the non-specif ic symptoms, rapid progression and mimicry of the tumor process. Bladder endometriosis should be included in the spectrum of differential diagnosis in women with genital endometriosis in their history, as well as in those with the cyclical nature of a pain symptom and gross hematuria relieved by antiestrogenic medications. The investigation has demonstrated the successful experience with surgical treatment for bladder endometriosis in cooperation with a gynecologist and an urologist.
