A abnormal cavity or channel that forms within the bladder, usually caused by disease or injury.
From Greek 'kystis' (bladder) + 'syrinx' (tube/pipe). This medical term combines two Greek roots to describe a tubular cavity pathology.
The word 'syrinx' also gives us the name for that amazing sound-making organ in birds—but in this medical context, it describes an unwanted pipe in the bladder that can cause serious complications.
