We report an unusual case of retrovesical ectopic prostate
tissue in a 71-year-old man, whose prostate-specific antigen was 10.20 ng/ml.
Transabdominal ultrasonography, pelvic computed
tomography showed a heterogeneous, solid-cystic, 8 cm × 8.8 cm × 8.5 cm
mass in contact with the posterior wall of the bladder.
The patient underwent a laparoscopic pelvic neoplasm
resection. Pathological examination confirmed the retrovesical tumor was normal
prostate tissue.
Ectopic prostate tissue is a relatively uncommon disease, and
most of them were found in the lower male genitourinary tract. However, the
ectopic prostate tissue suited in the retrovesical space is rare.
