Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical presentation pathologic characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle.

Methods: One case of cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle was analyzed and relevant literature reviewed.

Result: The patient underwent surgical removal of the right seminal vesicle along with the tumor, which was pathologically confirmed to be cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle. Ultrasonography and CT scanning revealed no recurrence 3 months later.

Conclusion: Cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle is extremely rare and easily missed in diagnosis. Routine digital rectal examination (DRE) is necessary and ultrasonography and CT scan are helpful to diagnosis. Seminal vesiculectomy with tumor removal is an ideal option with good prognosis.
