Abstract :
Polypoid cystitis is a benign exophytic mucosal lesion of the bladder. Differentiating it
from papillary transitional cell carcinoma is difficult due to their similar characteristics.
Although indwelling catheter is the main well-known cause of polypoid cystitis, some
case reports unrelated to catheterization have been described. However, the radiological
findings of polypoid cystitis have rarely been reported. We hereby describe polypoid cystitis
in a 20-year-old man without a history of catheterization along with the computed
tomographic findings.
