  • Title: Pseudosarcomatous myofibroblastic tumor of the urinary bladder with massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage in a child.
    Author: Okada K, Fujii Y, Uema K, Yoshimoto T, Nakatsu T, Yoshida T, Hasegawa T.
    Journal: Acta Paediatr Jpn; 1998 Oct; 40(5):470-3. PubMed ID: 9821709.
    Abstract:
    A 3-year-old boy presented with persistent abdominal pain, hematuria and facial pallor with progressive anemia. A computed tomography scan showed a massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage and tumor mass in the bladder. Histological examinations of the resected tumor revealed findings of pseudosarcomatous myofibroblastic tumor (PMT). The clinico-pathological features of this case warn us that PMT can cause acute abdomen syndrome with massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage.
