Submucosal fibromatosis: prostatism in a young boy?
A seven-year-old boy was seen with a urodynamically significant, obstructing, posterior urethral mass. It was believed to represent either a fibromuscular prostatic enlargement or a nonpedunculated congenital polyp. The differential diagnosis is discussed. Transurethral resection of the mass resulted in decreased voiding pressure and relief of symptoms.
