Patient's question:
Gender: Male, recently diagnosed with prostatic cyst after examination, but the treatment is not improving.Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts are cystic changes that occur again due to congenital or acquired reasons in the prostate gland. Congenital cysts result from incomplete atrophy of the, which fuse at the midline and form a deep diverticulum or cyst at the bladder base, opening posteriorly into the prostatic urethra. Acquired cysts are caused by fibrous prostatic stroma leading to incomplete or intermittent obstruction of the acini, gradually thickening the acinar epithelium, ultimately resulting in retention cysts. These cysts can be located anywhere within the prostate or weakly at the bladder neck, with a diameter of 1 to 2 centimeters.
