Ectopic prostate tissue, defined as the aberrant localization of prostate tissue, is often asymptomatic but may occasionally present with various clinical symptoms. A definitive diagnosis is established through surgical excision and subsequent histopathological analysis. This report discussess a case of ectopic prostate tissue identified in the bladder trigone of a 31-year-old patient who presented with lower urinary tract symptoms. Imaging studies revealed a suspicious lesion within the bladder, initially concerning for a potential tumor. Following cystoscopic examination, the lesion was transurethrally completely resected. Pathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of ectopic prostate tissue, and the patient was subsequently monitored. This case highlights ectopic prostate tissue as a rare pathological condition that can present with clinical features resembling bladder tumors.
异位前列腺组织是指前列腺组织的异常定位,通常无症状,但偶尔可能出现各种临床症状。通过手术切除及后续组织病理学分析来确诊。本报告讨论了一例在一名31岁出现下尿路症状的患者膀胱三角区发现异位前列腺组织的病例。影像学检查显示膀胱内有一个可疑病变,最初怀疑是潜在肿瘤。经膀胱镜检查后,经尿道将病变完全切除。病理分析证实为异位前列腺组织,随后对患者进行了监测。该病例凸显了异位前列腺组织作为一种罕见的病理状况,可表现出类似膀胱肿瘤的临床特征。
