Summary

Ectopic prostatic polyps can mimic bladder tumors, leading to misdiagnosis. Histological examination confirmed benign prostatic hyperplasia, highlighting the need to consider ectopic prostatic tissue in male hematuria cases.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Ectopic prostatic tissue, though rare, can present diagnostic challenges.
  • Preoperative evaluations can suggest malignancy, necessitating further investigation.

Observation:

  • A case presented with an exophytic lesion near the verumontanum, initially suspected as a bladder tumor invading prostatic tissue.
  • Transurethral resection was performed for the lesion.

Findings:

  • Histological examination revealed typical findings of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
  • A review of 42 Japanese literature cases of ectopic prostatic tissue was conducted.

Implications:

  • Ectopic prostatic tissue should be included in the differential diagnosis for male patients presenting with hematuria.
