Unusual cause of urinary retention in a child: inflammatory pseudotumor of the urinary bladder

Abstract Background Urinary bladder masses are uncommon in the pediatric age group and pose a diagnostic challenge, often necessitating histopathological differentiation and confirmation. An unusual mimic of neoplastic bladder mass is inflammatory pseudotumor, and timely identification and diagnosis...
