ZAMBRANO PALACIOS, Fabián Marcelo et al. Eosinophilic cystitis in a woman with chronic kidney disease. Rev. virtual Soc. Parag. Med. Int. [online]. 2023, vol.10, n.2, pp.118-123.  Epub 30-Set-2023. ISSN 2312-3893.  https://doi.org/10.18004/rvspmi/2312-3893/2023.10.02.118.

We present the case of a 70-year-old woman with a history of chronic kidney disease without dialysis who was admitted with acute decompensation and improved with hemodialysis sessions. On physical examination, frank hematuria was noticeable, therefore a pelvic ultrasound was requested, where a distended bladder with a 7.2 cm clot inside was observed. The tomography showed an apparent bladder wall tumor. Cyst urethrography confirmed chronic eosinophilic cystitis. It was managed with hydroxyzine, having a favorable response, reducing episodes of hematuria. Eosinophilic cystitis is a rare medical condition that presents with urinary symptoms such as dysuria and hematuria. It is more common in children than in adults. The diagnostic method is through a bladder wall biopsy by cystoscopy. Management is aimed at relieving symptoms. The interest in the case is due to the rarity of this pathology.
