Abstract
Congenital prostatic abnormalities are not commonly encountered in clinical practice but can provide insight into normal prostatic development. Furthermore, understanding normal prostate embryology and molecular signaling may provide novel approaches to the treatment of prostatic neoplasia. This review examines normal fetal development and congenital pathology of the prostate, including 5-α-reductase deficiency, prostatic ectopia, the prostate in the female pseudohermaphrodite, the prostate in prune belly syndrome, prostatic utricle, and trisomy syndromes.
