Patient's question:
What should I do if I have a prostatic cyst? What should I do if I have a prostatic cyst? What should I do if I have a prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
Smaller, asymptomatic cysts generally do not require treatment unless they are complicated by infection. It is only necessary to monitor them closely for any changes. Larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts can be treated surgically. There have been reports of cyst puncture and aspiration under ultrasound guidance, followed by the instillation of a coagulating agent. However, due to incomplete or intermittent adenoid obstruction, even after bilateral puncture and aspiration, cyst recurrence is still more likely due to local adenoid excretion. Surgical treatment for prostatic cysts primarily involves drainage, such as perineal incision drainage or transurethral prostatectomy drainage. The treatment of acute prostatitis includes stabilizing the overall condition and local therapy.
