The unusual mass of retrovesical space: a secondary hydatid cyst disease

ScientificWorldJournal. 2006 Oct 2:6:2481-5. doi: 10.1100/tsw.2006.386.

Abstract

Hydatic cyst of seminal vesicles is very rarely seen. We report a case who complained of the inability to void, which developed progressively with dysuria, frequency, nocturia, and tenesmus, due to a giant retrovesical hydatid cyst that displaced the bladder and rectosigmoid region.
