Giant multilocular prostatic cystadenoma, a diagnosis to consider in large pelvic male masses

Abstract

Giant multilocular prostatic cystadenomas are rare benign prostatic tumor, usually presenting as a large pelvic mass, compressing the adjacent organs but with no clear aggressive features, frequently causing obstructive voiding symptoms. Nowadays, imaging plays an important role on the adequate characterization of these lesions, not only on depicting their different internal components, but also the relationship with the adjacent structures, therefore providing the best preoperative surgical planning. Here we present a case of a 62-year-old patient with recurrent obstructive voiding symptoms due to a giant multilocular prostatic cystadenomas, with histologically correlation, posteriorly excised.
