Encrusted cystitis (EC) was first described as chronic cystitis with mucosal calcification in 1914 (1). It is a very rare chronic inflammatory disease presenting with dysuria, pelvic pain and gross hematuria. Voided urine contains mucus or calcified mucopurulent stone like particles. Urinalysis always reveals alkaline pH. It may be present in healthy individuals with no predisposing etiological factors (2-4). Etiologically, previous urological diseases, immunosuppression, urinary infection with urea splitting bacteria, or urological interventions resulting in bladder mucosa trauma may also be present (5, 6). In the present case report, we describe a novel treatment for EC with intravesical dimethyl sulfoxide.
结石性膀胱炎（EC）于 1914 年首次被描述为伴有黏膜钙化的慢性膀胱炎（1）。它是一种非常罕见的慢性炎症性疾病，表现为尿痛、骨盆疼痛和肉眼血尿。排尿时尿液中含有黏液或钙化的黏液脓性结石样颗粒。尿液分析总是显示碱性 pH 值。它可能存在于没有潜在病因的健康个体中（2-4）。从病因学上讲，以前的泌尿系统疾病、免疫抑制、尿素分解细菌引起的尿路感染或导致膀胱黏膜创伤的泌尿系统干预也可能存在（5、6）。在本病例报告中，我们描述了一种新的膀胱内二甲基亚砜治疗 EC 的方法。
