We report a rare case of vesical endometriosis in a 65-year-old postmenopausal woman. An abdominal hysterectomy had been performed 34 years previously, and exogenous estrogens had not been administered. The hormone levels were normal for a castrated female subject. The patient was treated surgically with transurethral resection and the following hormonal therapy. Endometriosis of the urinary tract can happen even in postmenopausal women.
