Summary Prostatic utricles revealed by the presentation of haematuria are very rare. Only limited experience with laparoscopic surgery of prostatic utricle has been reported to date. Herein we report a 20‐year‐old male with frequently terminal haematuria and oligozoospermia who underwent successful laparoscopic excision of a large prostatic utricle. Haematuria disappeared and semen quality improved during 1‐year follow‐up.
