- Abstract
- Most prostatic cysts are not symptomatic and are found incidentally. There have been some reports of prostatic cysts presenting as an infravesical obstruction. Our case is the second published report of an anteriorly positioned midline prostatic cyst of the bladder neck. The prostatic cyst in a 41-year-old man presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms was located in the anterior and midline area of the prostate and was protruding into the bladder neck at the precise twelve o'clock position. The cyst obstructed the bladder neck by acting like a checking valve. Transurethral resection of the cyst was performed, and the obstructive symptoms successfully improved.
