title: Müllerian duct cyst masquerading as chronic prostatitis: diagnosis with magnetic resonance imaging using a phased array surface coil.
abstract: Prostatitis is a common clinical syndrome that on rare occasions may result from mass lesions in the pelvis. This report concerns a man with debilitating prostatitis that was caused by a müllerian duct cyst. The diagnosis was facilitated by examination with magnetic resonance imaging using a pelvic phased array surface coil and a small field of view.
