When surgical treatment for symptomatic seminal vesicle cyst is deemed necessary, conventional surgery is invasive because of the deep location and dissection difficulty of the seminal vesicles in the retrovesical space. Recently, the laparoscopic approach has been advocated as an optimal yet minimally invasive technique for the surgical treatment of seminal vesicle pathology. It provides a good image and easy approach to the seminal vesicles. We report a case of a symptomatic giant cyst of the left seminal vesicle that is associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis, which was treated by transperitoneal laparoscopic excision.

Seminal vesicle cysts associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis are very rare, with most being congenital, and two-thirds associated with renal dysplasia or agenesis and ectopic ureter opening into the seminal vesicle. When they are symptomatic, surgical excision has been the treatment of choice. Herein, a case of a symptomatic giant seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis is reported, which was treated by laparoscopic excision.

Seminal vesicle cysts combined with ipsilateral renal agenesis represent a rare urologic anomaly. This urogenital malformation is explained as a developmental failure in the same mesodermal region. We report a case of seminal vesicle cyst, ipsilateral dilated ureter and renal agenesis which was treated by surgical excision. And we searched the literature to review the clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment options of this anomaly.

We report a case of huge seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis in a 49-year-old man with frequency, urethral discomfort with a full bladder, and tenesmus as complaints.

Stones in the seminal vesicle are extremely rare. We report a case with a large stone in a dilated seminal vesicle. A 20-year-old man presented with a large calcified density in the pelvic cavity on plain films. A 6.0 cm cone shaped stone was noted in the dilated left seminal vesicle diagnosed by radiological examination. We treated the patient by transperitoneal laparoscopic stone removal and partial seminal vesiculectomy. The composition of stone was carbonate apatite. This approach to the treatment of such pathological conditions of the seminal vesicles provides an additional option.

We report on 4 cases with a unilateral single ectopic ureter associated with ipsilateral dysplastic or hypoplastic kidney and the usefulness of preoperative magnetic resonance(MR) urography in revealing the ureteral course and detecting the insertion site of ectopic ureter. Among two cases of unilateral single ectopic ureter associated with dysplastic kidney, one drains into the seminal vesicle and the other drains into the urethra. The other two cases have unilateral single ectopic ureter associated with hypoplastic kidney that drain into the vagina. In all cases, MR urography shows the ureteral course and insertion site of ectopic ureter regardless of the renal function. We believe that MR urograhy is a useful technique for the diagnosis of unilateral single ectopic ureter associated with hypofunctioning kidney.
