OBJECTIVE: To report a case of cystitis glandularis, a proliferative disorder of the bladder mucosa whose incidence is estimated to be approximately 1%. METHODS/ RESULTS: A case of diffuse cystitis glandularis in a male patient is presented. Intravesical steroid therapy achieved symptomatic resolution, although the proliferative mucosal lesions persist. CONCLUSION: There is currently no non ablative treatment that has been demonstrated to be effective in diffuse cystitis glandularis.
