    Abstract:
    We report a case of vesical endometriosis that worsened during the early pregnancy period. A 37-year old woman had been under treatment for endometriosis (including vesical endometriosis) by a gynecologist during the past 10 years. She was treated for sterility 1 year ago, and became pregnant through in vitro fertilization. In her 8th gestational week, she complained of gross hematuria at our hospital. Cystoscopic findings revealed some tumors that appeared worse than the last findings two years ago. In order to deny malignancy, transurethral resection of the bladder tumor was performed in her 12th gestational week. The pathologic diagnosis was endometriosis. She was able to stay pregnant, and delivered a girl. After delivery, cystoscopic findings revealed reduction of tumors. In most cases pregnancy cures endometriosis ; however, in this case symptoms became worse during the early stage of pregnancy. The reason for this contrary event is discussed.
