The bladder wall is the outside of the bladder, the organ that stores urine.
Bladder wall thickening is exactly what it sounds like. The wall of your bladder is thickening if you have bladder wall thickening.
The main muscle in the bladder is called the Detrusor muscle (which is a smooth muscle). it is circular.
The wall of the urinary bladder should not be > 3 mm thick when distended and not > 5 mm thick when decompressed. The thickened wall could be due to the edema (swelling) of the wall which can happen due to the inflammation(cystitis) or the thickening could be due to the deposition of urinary sediments on the walls of the bladder. These are the 2 commonest causes. Bladder cancer is another cause. Generally if you are diagnosed with thickening of the bladder you will be sent to a urologist and have a cystoscopy performed.
