Abstract
Introduction: Lymphangioma is a sporadic benign tumor of the bladder. It is a congenital disorder and based on the size of lymphatic spaces, it is divided into 3 types of capillary, cavernous, and cystic.
Case Report: In this paper, we presented a 40-year-old woman with microscopic hematuria and
a normal urinary ultrasound. Urethrocystoscopy showed a flat 4 mm highlighted strawberry-like
lesion on the right lateral wall of the bladder. After a cold cup biopsy, the lesion was coagulated by
the holmium: YAG (Ho: YAG) laser.
Conclusion: In Bladder Lymphangioma Based on the size of the lesion, partial cystectomy or minimally invasive surgeries such as laser modality would be the principal treatment.
