Prostatic Cyst

Abstract

Prostatic cysts are one of the uncommon congenital disorders, and only a few cases have been reported. This lesion actually includes two different entities on the embryological development basis, the enlarged prostatic utricle and the cystic remnants of the müllerian ducts. We report two patients with prostatic cysts, probably two prostatic utricle cysts. In both cases the cyst caused significant urogenital dysfunction. The patients were cured by endoscopic unroofing of the cysts. We discuss the embryogenesis, diagnosis and treatment by reviewing the literature.
