Ectopic prostatic glands in bulbar urethra. Immunoperoxidase study.
Ectopic prostatic glands in the bulbar urethra of a sixty-year-old man were identified by an indirect immunoperoxidase stain for prostatic acid phosphatase. Cystoscopically the appearances were those of "urethritis" without the polypoid appearance previously reported in cases of ectopic prostatic tissue.
