The typical symptoms of glandular cystitis usually present as urgent and frequent urinate, painful urination, blood urine apparent to the naked eye and lower abdominal pain. Those all belong to nonspecific manifestations. By the examination of cystoscope, it can discover many flocculent materials in urinary bladder cavity and part of glandular cystitis produces changes and presents as nipple-form, follicle-form or cauliflower-form, in which, the nipple-form glandular cystitis should be distinguished from nipple-form tumor of urinary bladder, that is, in the former case, the lump in the region of nipple could be divided by deep ditches and the nipple becomes hyaline, in which there are no branches of blood vessel and around which edema can be discovered. In the case of follicle-form glandular cystitis, the follicle(s), which might be single or clumped, usually emerges in the region of trigone of urinary bladder, or around urethral orifice, or casually in the side wall and top of urinary bladder. Only by pathological examination, can it be distinguished from tumor of bladder.

By ultrasonic scanning, according to the symptoms of glandular cystitis, it can be divided into three kinds of conditions as follow:

(1) Nodular type. Under this condition, the bladder will present circumscribed eminence and the interior of the region appearing pathological changes will produce steady and middle-leveled echo. It is hard to distinguish it from tumor of bladder.
(2) Nipple-form type. In this case, the wall of urinary bladder will emerge evection partially or polypoid hyperplasia which is always intruding into the bladder cavity.
(3) Diffuse-hyperplasia type. Through analysis of ultrasonogram, it will discover thickening of the wall of urinary bladder in different degree, which is the most common manifestation of glandular cystitis. Clinically, the examinations of computerized tomography(CT) and intravenous pyelography almost can do nothing to confirm it.
