Introduction: A previous report has shown that cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors can prevent the recurrence of cystitis glandularis postoperatively. Herein, we present a case of cystitis glandularis in which the tumor volume was markedly reduced by preoperative oral administration of a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor.
Case Presentation: A 45-year-old man with voiding difficulty and lower abdominal pain during urination was referred to our hospital. Cystoscopy revealed multiple cystitis glandularis-like edematous masses on the trigone and the neck of the bladder, completely involving the bilateral ureteral orifices. Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor was orally administered at the patient's request. Six weeks later, the tumor volume was markedly reduced, bilateral ureteral orifices were identified, and the voiding difficulty and pain on urination disappeared. Complete transurethral resection of the residual tumor was performed, and the pathological diagnosis was intestinal-type cystitis glandularis.
Conclusion: Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition can be considered a useful therapeutic strategy for cystitis glandularis.

Cystitis glandularis (CG), known as a pre-gradual lesion in the bladder, is the pathological changes in the vesical mucosa characterized by inflammatory invasion and chronic obstruction. Clinically, effective treatment against CG is prescribed only when using drug therapy. Fucoidan, the naturally extractive polysaccharide, is well-reported bioactive compound with anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory properties.

Purpose: To explore the diagnostic characteristics of cystitis glandularis (CG) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on pathologically confirmed patients who underwent bladder MRI examination between January 2019 and November 2023. Image analysis was jointly conducted, with emphasis on lesion location, morphology, size, signal intensity, and pattern of enhancement, by two genitourinary radiologists with 22 and 15 years of experience, respectively.
