Patient's question:
A good friend had a prostatic cyst detected and the doctor recommended surgery for treatment. I'd like to ask you a few questions: Is surgery necessary for prostatic cyst treatment?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts are first categorized by size. If small prostatic cysts do not interfere with survival, treatment may not be necessary. However, if the prostatic cyst is large and compresses the urethra, causing additional urinary difficulties and other symptoms, timely treatment is required. Medication for anti-inflammatory treatment can be used. If the medication treatment is not effective or the cyst recurs repeatedly, or if the prostatic cyst is large and the compression symptoms are severe, then surgical treatment is necessary.
