Abstract

Haemospermia is a frightening symptom. Many cases are of benign aetiology but 5 to 10% will have underlying malignancy. Many younger patients require only routine clinical examination, urine analysis and reassurance, but patients aged over 40 years, those with persistent haemospermia, or those with associated haematuria require urological investigation. Imaging of the prostate and seminal vesicles with transrectal ultrasound is of particular value in the investigation of these patients.
