Ectopic prostatic tissue, though rare, can occur in the bladder and present as a tumor causing microhematuria in men. This finding is typically benign but warrants consideration in diagnosing urinary bleeding.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Ectopic prostatic tissue is uncommon outside the prostate, with rare occurrences reported in the bladder trigone.
  • Benign prostatic polyps are common in the urethra, but prostatic glands in other locations are rare.

Observation:

  • A 55-year-old man presented with a 5-year history of microhematuria.
  • A whitish sessile tumor was found at the ureteric ridge, containing benign prostatic glandular tissue.

Findings:

  • This case represents one of seven reported instances of ectopic prostatic tissue in the bladder, reviewed from Japanese literature.
  • Ectopic prostatic tissue, while generally benign, has a potential for local recurrence.

Implications:

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