“…Benign polyps with prostatic-type epithelium or ec topic prostatic tissue have been mainly observed in the prostatic urethra, and more than 30 cases in the urinary bladder, 9 in the anterior urethra and 3 posterior to the bladder [15][16][17] have been reported.…”

“…Two similar cases of true ectopic prostate have been described arising outside the genitourinary system on locations subvesical, retrovesical and retroperitoneal re spectively [5,6]. According to Spiro and Levine [5] these ectopic lesions may arise as a result of migration of embryonic prostate tissue with possible hormonal stimu lation in adult life.…”

Supratrigonal Ectopic Prostate: Case Report and Review of the Literature

1991

A 76-year-old man with a 6-month history of dysuria and frequency had a sessile tumor at the bladder dome containing benign prostatic glandular tissue. The presence of benign prostatic polyps in the prostatic urethra and bladder neck is a common finding. Ectopic prostatic tissue elsewhere is rare, it has been described previously in a few cases in the trigonum and only once in the supratrigonal area. The origin of prostate glands in this unlikely location is not yet fully understood. Prostatic tissue at any ectopic location is benign, although local recurrence has been reported.

“…However, only 15 cases of ectopic prostatic tissue situated outside the genitourinary system have been published [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Even rarer is the appearance of prostatic tissue in the retrovesical space, with only 8 previous cases having been described in the literature [5,7,8,[10][11][12].…”

We report on an ectopic prostate in a 50-year-old man. Transabdominal ultrasonography, pelvic computed tomography, and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging revealed a heterogeneous tumor 8 cm in diameter in contact with the posterior wall of the urinary bladder. The tumor was histologically confirmed to be a benign prostatic hyperplasia. This is the 3rd case of retrovesical ectopic prostatic tissue which was diagnosed by transrectal needle biopsy.
