Prostatic nephrogenic adenoma. Case report

Abstract

Objective: We present a case of prostatic urethra nephrogenic adenoma as an incidental finding following transurethral resection of the prostate.

Method/result: It is an incidental diagnosis of nephrogenic adenoma of prostatic urethra in a 50-year-old male operated for benign prostatic hyperplasia by means of transurethral resection.

Conclusions: Nephrogenic adenoma is an infrequent and benign lesion of the urinary tract, associated with a previous history of trauma or irritation on the urothelium. Predisposing factors include infections, calculi, surgery, trauma and kidney transplantation.
