Cystadenoma of the seminal vesicle: case report and literature review.
A benign fibroepithelial and cystic tumor of the seminal vesicle is described in a 63-year-old man. The symptoms, macroscopic appearance, microscopic characteristics, immunophenotype prognosis and complications of this rare benign tumor are discussed, and 9 previously reported cases are reviewed. Several terms have been used to describe benign fibroepithelial tumors of the seminal vesicle. We suggest that the term cystadenoma is the most appropriate.
