Combined laparoscopic and cystoscopic injection sclerotherapy for bladder venous malformation: a novel technique.

Treatment of vascular malformations of the urinary bladder can be challenging. We report a case of bladder venous malformation treated with sodium tetradecyl sulphate (STS 3%) sclerotherapy, using a combined cystoscopic and percutaneous transperitoneal laparoscopy guided approach. When cystoscopic views are poor, the laparoscopic approach is a useful adjunct to aid sclerotherapy of bladder venous malformation. This technique has not been previously described.
