   Bladder amyloidosis is a rare condition that can mimic malignancy clinically and radiologically. A 44-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with macroscopic hematuria and dysuria. A 2-cm nodular lesion was detected next to the left ureteral orifice in the bladder on abdominal ultrasound. The lesions were excised via transurethral resection. Pathological examination revealed amyloidosis. After internal medicine evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with primary bladder amyloidosis, and it was decided to follow-up the patient with cystoscopy.
