Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why, I keep wanting to go to the toilet, and I feel like I can't fully empty my bladder. I thought it was because my kidneys weren't good, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said it was a prostatic cyst.Doctor's answer:
Smaller and asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts can be treated surgically. There are various approaches, including transurethral, extravesical, perineal, and transrectal routes. Poor exposure often leads to incomplete surgical removal, resulting in a high recurrence rate and frequent complications. For cysts near the perineum, perineal approach surgery is more likely to cause erectile dysfunction (ED), so it should be used with caution in young patients. It is important to seek medical treatment at a formal hospital.
