This report documents an uncommon prostatic hyperplasia which developed within,1 thick capsule between the bladder and rectum grossly showing a phyllodes type ot growth. It was simply excised, but recurred locally two years later. A total prostatectomy was performed, and microscopic examination of the tissue revealed no malignant transformation.
