  • Title: Paraganglioma of the urinary bladder--a case report.
    Author: Jacob S, Prabhakar BR, Kakkar N, Mammen K.
    Journal: Indian J Pathol Microbiol; 2003 Oct; 46(4):652-3. PubMed ID: 15025368.
    Abstract:
    Paragangliomas of the urinary bladder are extremely rare tumors accounting for less than 1% of all bladder tumors. Males and females are affected roughly equally with an average age of 41 years. Hypertension and headache during or immediately after voiding in association with intermittent hematuria is virtually diagnostic of urinary bladder paragangliomas. A high index of clinical suspicion is required to diagnose these tumors. We present a case of a urinary bladder paraganglioma because of its rarity.
