Chronic increase in the intravesical pressure secondary to bladder outlet obstruction can lead to the formation of bladder diverticulum. Bladder diverticulum may get pulled into the hernial sac and may become a component of the hernia. Here, we report the case of an elderly male who had an unusual presentation of urinary bladder diverticulum as the content in an obstructed inguinal hernia. Upon exploration, the bladder diverticulum was released from the inguinal canal and returned to the peritoneal cavity, following which conventional hernioplasty was done. Inguinal herniation of bladder diverticulum is an uncommon condition and can be perilous during surgery if not diagnosed preoperatively.

Introduction: Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder classically associated with multiple basal cell carcinomas, odontogenic keratocysts and skeletal anomalies. However, its significant phenotypic heterogeneity often delays the diagnosis. Here, we undertake the first comprehensive characterisation of NBCCS and congenital urinary tract anomalies.

Background In this study, we aim to report our single-center experience with laparoscopic pediatric urological surgeries. We aim to determine the feasibility of various urological and urogenital laparoscopic procedures and the tricks that increase surgical success. Methodology Data from 98 patients who underwent laparoscopic urological and/or urogenital procedures for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in our clinic between June 2018 and February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.

Bladder diverticula are herniations of the bladder mucosa through the muscular layer and can be congenital or acquired. Acquired bladder diverticula are almost always associated with bladder outlet obstruction. Bladder diverticula are uncommon and often asymptomatic, however, can present with non-specific lower urinary tract symptoms, haematuria, or urinary tract infection.

The patient was diagnosed with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, which was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging that showed tumor invasion into the fatty tissue surrounding the diverticulum. After two cycles of neoadjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin, he underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with pelvic lymph node dissection followed by intracorporeal ileal conduit.
