Seminal vesicle cysts are rare clinical entities estimated to occur in 0.005% of the male population. These cysts could be either congenital or acquired, primary or secondary. The majority of these cysts are asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. Larger cysts could present with a wide array of symptoms such as dysuria, acute urinary retention, perineal discomfort, or hematospermia. We hereby present a case of bilateral seminal vesicle cysts arising due to prostate adenocarcinoma. We discuss the presentation of such cysts, their method of diagnosis, and the approach to management.
精囊囊肿是罕见的临床病症，估计在男性人群中的发生率为0.005%。这些囊肿可能是先天性或后天性的，原发性或继发性的。这些囊肿大多无症状，是偶然发现的。较大的囊肿可能会出现多种症状，如排尿困难、急性尿潴留、会阴不适或血精。我们在此报告一例因前列腺腺癌引起的双侧精囊囊肿病例。我们讨论了此类囊肿的表现、诊断方法及治疗方法。
