Abstract EN

Cystosarcoma of the seminal vesicle is a very rare malignant tumor; in the literature only four cases are reported.

We present a case of cystosarcoma phyllodes arising in the right seminal vesicle of a 49-year-old man without any urinary symptom but with persistent constipation.

Ultrasound examination showed a mass at the right superior base of the prostate subsequently studied with CT and MRI.

The patient underwent vesiculectomy; his postoperative course was uneventful.

The patient is still well, without evidence of recurrent disease.
