Summary:A 68-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for treatment of a recurrent bladder tumor. Histological examination performed after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TUR-BT) revealed a nephrogenic adenoma without any evidence of malignancy. After TUR-BT, total cystectomy was performed to control severe irritative symptoms. Prolonged cystitis and intravesical pirarubicin therapy after TUR-BT may have played an etiological role. Our case is the 25th case of nephrogenic adenoma of the bladder reported in the Japanese literature.
