Fig. 2 Intraoperative image showing the voluminous bladder cancer after removal of the stone. The supravesical mass has been removed. The thick bladder wall shows a large laceration that occurred during the surgical manoeuvres.

Fig. 3 Pathologic sample of the supravesical cystic mass: fibromuscular wall with sclerosis (deeper part in upper inset) and superficial ulceration (lower inset) at low power magnification. This pattern is consistent with a urachal cyst. European Urology , DOI: ( /j.eururo ) Copyright © 2009 European Association of Urology Terms and Conditions

Fig. 6 Videourodynamic results show no signs of detrusor overactivity, a slight reduction of the vesical compliance, and a normal voiding phase (maximal flow rate: 43ml/s). The vesical catheter is ejected immediately after the onset of micturition. The morphology of the abdominal pressure curve shows a slight increase consistent with abdominal strain. During the voiding phase, the bladder neck relaxes normally without evidence of urethral stricture. Overall, urodynamic parameters rule out a bladder outlet obstruction.
