A thirteen-year review of bladder diverticula was undertaken and 74 cases were identified. In 8 patients primary neoplasms arose in the diverticula, and their treatment included diverticulectomy or partial cystectomy with or without postoperative irradiation, irradiation only, and transurethral resection of the tumor combined with fulguration of the diverticular wall and postoperative bladder instillations with doxorubicin or thiotepa solutions. Early diagnosis with additional visualization of the interior of vesical diverticulum is mandatory, since carcinoma arising in it has a poor prognosis.

Hutch Diverticulum (HD) is defined as the protrusion of the mucosal and submucosal layer through the muscle bundles of the underlying detrusor muscle. HD is located at the vesicoureteral junction with a backward direction from the homolateral ureteral orifice. As far as its etiology is concerned, HD is caused either by a congenital muscle wall defect at the level where the Waldeyer's fascia occupies the clefts between the vesical part of the homolateral ureter and the detrusor, or is associated with abortive ureteral duplication or defective incorporation of mesonephric duct into the bladder at the site of ureteral hiatus or finally is associated with the development of transient urethral obstruction.
