Abstract

We report an unusual case of a periurethral cystic mass in a 43-year-old man who presented with perineal pain, dysuria, painful ejaculation, and post-ejaculatory lower urinary tract symptoms. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a multiocular periurethral cystic structure. On surgical exploration of the urethra, a cystic lesion was identified and removed. The mass was classified as a complex periurethral cyst from the histopathologic findings.
