Abstract: We herein report an unusual appearance of an extensively enlarged urinary bladder on Tc-99m Methylenediphosphanate (MDP) whole body bone scan of a 67 years old prostate cancer patient with abdominal distension. Due to micturition problem, we inserted urinary catheter and drained 11.5 liters of residual urine. Abdominal distention regressed significantly. On postdrainage images, bladder activity was completely cleaned.

Keywords: Tc 99m medronate, incidental findings, urinary bladder diseases.
