Patient's question:
Always experiencing frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria, occasionally with difficulty urinating. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as a prostatic cyst, measuring 0.30.2. What are the dangers of a prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts include congenital cysts, acquired cysts, true prostatic cysts, and parasitic cysts. Prostatic cysts can be transmitted through the second nerve and stones. Larger cysts can compress the urethra, leading to urinary difficulties. Common symptoms include urgency, frequency, difficulty urinating, thin urine stream, and urinary retention. Congenital prostatic cysts are often associated with other congenital diseases such as hypospadias, cryptorchidism, and renal agenesis. Diagnosis can be confirmed through physical examinations and MRI. Small cysts without symptoms can be followed up with periodic reexaminations without special treatment, while larger cysts or those with symptoms may require surgery or needle aspiration.
