Objective: The association of cystitis glandularis with primary bladder tumors is well known. A case of cystitis glandularis progressing to transitional cell carcinoma is described and the literature briefly reviewed.
Methods/results: We report on a case of diffuse cystitis glandularis in whom progression to transitional cell carcinoma with areas of adenocarcinoma had been discovered. Treatment was by radical cystectomy with urinary diversion.
Conclusion: Extensive and diffuse cystitis glandularis can be a potentially malignant lesion. Patients with diffuse cystitis glandularis should have a regular cystoscopic follow-up for early detection of progression to a bladder tumor.

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.
