Abstract

The bladder paraganglioma, which makes up 0.06% of all bladder tumors, is a highly uncommon condition. A 30-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with bladder paragangliomas at our hospital. The study covers the patient's journey from the first clinical presentation to the follow-up after surgery, providing insight into this uncommon illness. Urinary bladder tumour shown on CT KUB. The case was established by a transurethral resection biopsy. In order to completely remove the tumour, the patient had a radical cystectomy along with a hysterectomy and a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. A tumour mostly seen in the detrusor muscle that is organised in zellbellen pattern and is bordered by pushing fibrovascular stroma. Upon CT follow-up at three and six months, the results were generally unremarkable in terms of margins, metastasis, and local recurrence. Urinary tract hyperplasia is the most typical sign in our instance of bladder paraganglioma, a very uncommon tumour. A tumour called a polypoid in the bladder's posterior wall suggests cancer. More investigation into this uncommon ailment is necessary, as surgical extraction is still the only treatment available to these people.
