Penile Prosthetic Pump Reservoir Mimicking a Cecal Subepithelial Mass.

Intestinal subepithelial lesions are often encountered during endoscopy. Etiologies can include lesions intrinsic or extrinsic to the gastrointestinal wall. They can present a diagnostic dilemma as simple mucosal biopsies are often nondiagnostic. The combination of characteristic radiographic, endoscopic, and endosonographic features can aid in a definitive diagnosis precluding the need for unnecessary tissue sampling of extrinsic compressive etiologies. The location of the space of Retzius which is the traditional site of penile prosthetic pump reservoir insertion can predispose to cecal compression. We present a rare case of a penile prosthetic pump reservoir presenting as a cecal subepithelial mass on endoscopy.
