Abstract
Primary vesical varices are rare. We report a case of a 4-year-old girl who presented with recurrent gross hematuria secondary to primary vesical varices. Ultrasonography, enhanced computed tomography, and voiding cystourethrogram revealed a solid mass in the right wall of the bladder. Cystoscopy revealed a group of dilated submucosal veins and a red mass. The mass was ablated, and the histopathologic examination demonstrated varices of the bladder. Observation of the patient for 6 months postoperatively showed no recurrence of the hematuria.
