ABSTRACT
Mullerianosis is a rare, benign, and morphologically complex, tumor-like lesion that consists of an organoid structure with normal Müllerian tissue. The diagnosis requires the presence of at least two of the three mullerian tissues endometriosis, endosalpingiosis, and endocervicosis. There are only less than twenty (20) cases reported in literature. At present there is no published case report of mullerianosis here in the Philippines. This is a case report of a 30-year old Filipino woman who presented predominantly with lower urinary tract symptoms of severe dysuria, hematuria, and lumbar pain and was evaluated for a urologic problem secondary to a posterior bladder mass. Subsequent evaluations revealed the diagnosis of mullerianosis. This is where the interest in mullerianosis sets, its potential to mimic a neoplastic lesion of the urinary tract from clinical and diagnostic viewpoints. The clinical importance to diagnose this case correctly is of grave importance for appropriate management.
