An ultrasound suggested a cystic mass in the pelvis posterior to the bladder. When I examined the patient, I could feel a mass but not the prostate. MRI scan confirmed a midline 8cm cystic mass posterior to the bladder. We suspected Mullerian duct cyst which is often associated with renal genesis. So a CT scan was done and indeed this showed absent left kidney! <div>   <div> Mullerian Duct Cyst is rare with prevalence rate of 1-5%. A high index of suspicion is required to make the diagnosis as in this case. When symptomatic, it is usually nonspecific.  </div> <div> <span> https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5821299/ </span> </div> </div> </div> Wed, 16 Sep 2020 21:31:51 GMT https://www.24urology.co.uk/a-rare-cystic-lesion-presenting-with-lower-abdominal-pain-associated-with-urinary-symptoms thumbnail main image
