Abstract:
A 20-year-old man presented with a 1-month history of frequently terminal hematuria. Ultrasonography revealed 9 x 5 cm cystic lesion behind bladder and above the prostate. Magnetic resonance imaging showed the midline drop-shaped cyst originating within the prostate gland and separating from the seminal vesicles, in keeping with a müllerian duct remnant. The patient underwent surgical resection of the cyst. The histopathologic staining pattern displayed features consistent with a müllerian duct remnant.

Development of the Sexual Organs in the Embryo and Fetus
Near the gonadal ridges, two duct systems are present: the mesonephric ducts (Wolffian ducts) and paramesonephric ducts (Müllerian ducts). These ducts form the basis for the male...

Embryonic Connective Tissues
The mesenchyme is the first connective tissue that emerges in the developing embryo. It consists of loosely arranged multipotent mesenchymal cells and reticular fibers in the extracellular matrix. This loose arrangement allows easy migration of cells, which is essential for germ layer positioning, patterning, and organ morphogenesis during embryonic development. Mesenchyme is...
