Patient's question:
Is prostatic cyst easy to treat?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts can be treated through conservative therapy and surgical methods depending on the situation. Conservative treatment can involve oral Chinese medicine and topical applications of patches. Surgical options include transurethral resection, puncture injection of sclerosants, etc. The choice of treatment plan should be determined based on the size, location, and age of the patient. For cysts protruding into the urethra or bladder, transurethral resection of the cyst wall is recommended. For cysts within the prostate gland or posterior to it, ultrasound-guided puncture through the perineum or rectum can be used to aspirate the fluid and inject sclerosants. The positioning must be accurate, and the needle depth should be determined by the size of the cyst, with the tip ideally located at the center of the cyst! Of course, prostatic cysts cannot be treated solely through pure puncture. The treatment plan should primarily focus on comprehensive therapy.
