A case of prostatic‐type polyp in the wall of the urinary bladder in a 73‐year‐old male is presented. The literature concerning ectopic prostatic tissue in the urinary tract is reviewed and it is concluded that the lesion is benign. However, recurrence has been reported in two cases. The etiology and pathogenesis is unknown.
