Imaging and clinical features of giant multilocular prostatic cystadenoma: A case report
We report the imaging and clinical manifestations of a case of GMPC.
Patient concerns:
The case reported here relates to a 71-year-old man who complained of urination frequency and excessive urination at night. He underwent computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before surgery, both tests revealed a mass body in the prostate.
Diagnosis:
Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration was performed and a diagnosis of GMPC was made by histological examination.
Interventions:
The patient received radical pelvic tumor resection successfully.
Outcomes:
Two months after surgery, the follow-up CT and magnetic MRI re-examination found no signs of recurrence.
Lessons:
GMPC is a rare prostatic neoplasm with atypical clinical symptoms. MRI provides valuable information about GMPC. In case of a giant multilocular prostatic mass with well-defined boundary and abundant vascularity, benign feature on diffusion-weighted imaging, GMPC should be considered.
