Patient's question:
I am not married yet, and I haven't had sexual activity either. However, when I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was told that I have a prostatitis abscess. It's really incredibly frustrating, but for the happiness of my future life, I must actively treat it and pay more attention to it in daily life.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Prostatic cyst is a that occurs due to congenital or acquired reasons in the prostate gland. Congenital cysts are caused by incomplete regression of the, which fuses in the midline and forms a deep diverticulum or cyst under the bladder, opening into the posterior part of the prostatic urethra. Acquired cysts are due to incomplete or intermittent obstruction of the acini by the tough prostatic stroma, gradually thickening the acinar epithelium and ultimately leading to retention cysts. These can be located anywhere within the prostate or protrude into the bladder neck, with a diameter of 1–2 cm.Prostatic cysts can be complicated by infection and calculus formation. Larger cysts may compress the urethra, causing difficulty in urination. Common symptoms include urinary urgency, frequency, difficulty urinating, thin urine stream, and urinary retention. Congenital prostatic cysts are often associated with other congenital conditions such as hypospadias, cryptorchidism, and renal agenesis.
When the cyst is large, a rectal examination may detect the cyst in the prostate, urethral contrast imaging may reveal a curved impression in the posterior urethra, and ultrasound and CT can clearly determine its location. Smaller, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger cysts or symptomatic smaller cysts can be treated surgically. It is recommended to undergo relevant examinations at a for a definitive diagnosis and targeted treatment. Wishing you good health! It is best to seek treatment at a local hospital.
