PEComa is a rare mesenchymal tumor with unique features, sometimes manifesting in younger patients and can exhibit malignant transformation. We present a 24-year-old woman with urinary symptoms and hematuria. Imagining revealed a protruding mass in the bladder dome, raising suspicion for adenocarcinoma due to its location and vascular appearance. Pathology revealed PEComa. Clinicians should inquire about macroscopic hematuria and assess the entire urinary tract even in young patients with apparent urinary tract infection. Practitioners should be mindful of PEComa tumors, especially in cases involving young patients with tumors concerning the bladder dome. A variety of immunohistochemical techniques facilitate the diagnosis.
PEComa是一种具有独特特征的罕见间叶组织肿瘤,有时在年轻患者中出现,并且可能发生恶性转化。我们报告一名24岁有泌尿系统症状和血尿的女性。影像学检查显示膀胱顶部有一突出肿块,因其位置和血管表现而怀疑为腺癌。病理检查显示为PEComa。临床医生即使在明显患有尿路感染的年轻患者中也应询问肉眼血尿情况并评估整个泌尿道。从业者应留意PEComa肿瘤,尤其是在涉及膀胱顶部肿瘤的年轻患者病例中。多种免疫组织化学技术有助于诊断。
