Ectopic prostate in the testicle: an unusual cause of a solid testicular mass on ultrasonography.

Benign hyperplasia in ectopic prostatic tissue: a rare cause of pelvic mass

“…Less frequently, it has been described inside the bladder wall [6]. To our knowledge, there are only eight reports in the literature of ectopic prostatic tissue arising outside the urinary system [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] suggesting that this is a rare event.…”

“…Three well-circumscribed masses of benign fibromuscular and adenomatous hyperplasia have been found in the perivesical space [8,9,11], one ectopic prostatic nodule has been described in the pericolic fat [12], one in the anal canal [13] and another one has been found in the epididymis [10,14]. One adenocarcinoma in ectopic prostatic tissue has also been reported [7].…”

An unusual case of retrovesical ectopic prostate tissue accompanied by primary prostate cancer

“…Most aberrant prostatic tissue occurs in the urethra [6] and urinary bladder [7], but has also been observed in the testis [8], epididymis [9], seminal vesicle [5], cervix, and vagina [10]. Up to now, a few cases of retrovesical ectopic prostate have been reported in English medical literature [2-4].…”

Prostatic tissue ectopia within the seminal vesicle: a potential source of confusion with seminal vesicle involvement by prostatic adenocarcinoma

“…Aberrant prostatic tissue occurs most commonly in the urethra [4] and urinary bladder [3], but has also been observed in the testis [9], epididymis [6], penis [11], cervix, and vagina [7]. The presence of benign ectopic prostatic glandular elements within the seminal vesicle is extremely rare, with only a single report in the literature describing this unusual finding [10].…”
