Summary: A pubic cartilaginous cyst is a rare, benign, slow-growing degenerative lesion arising from the fibrocartilaginous part of the pubic symphysis joint usually occurring in post-menopausal women. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pubic and vulvar cystic masses. Since it is an uncommon lesion, especially in men, it can be easily misdiagnosed. Magnetic Resonance imaging is the investigation of choice for this condition. We report a case of a retropubic cyst incidentally detected in a 57-year-old male patient who performed a left hip Magnetic Resonance imaging.

Habitualmente, tende a ocorrer em mulheres pós-menopausa. Deve ser considerada no diagnóstico diferencial de massas císticas púbicas e vulvares. Tratando-se de uma lesão incomum, excecionalmente rara em homens, pode estar associada a erros diagnósticos, sendo a Ressonância Magnética a modalidade de imagem de eleição para o seu diagnóstico.
