Ultrasound Features:
A midline well-defined round anechoic cystic area is noted within the prostatic parenchyma.
Remember:
- Prostatic utricle cyst is very difficult or impossible to distinguish from a Müllerian duct cyst. It communicates with urethra & may contain spermatozoa on aspiration.
- Müllerian duct cysts usually occur in the 3rd & 4th decades of life, whereas prostatic utricle cysts are most often detected in the 1st & 2nd decades.
