"Prostatic cyst" - does it need treatment?
Prostate cysts are a type of benign lesion, mainly due to a tendency in the prostate or blockage of the prostate ducts, gradually forming a cystic lesion. Most prostate cysts are quite small and generally do not cause any discomfort to the patient. For such cases, no special treatment is required. Regular ultrasonographic follow-ups to monitor changes in the size of the cysts are sufficient. If the cyst becomes larger, it could cause pain in the lower abdomen and perineum or press on the urethra, leading to difficulty urinating. In such cases, considering cyst aspiration, drainage, or surgical removal of the cyst may be considered for treatment. After the surgery, the relief of the cyst pressure on the urethra and prostate can gradually alleviate the symptoms.
