Abstract
Introduction:
Zinner syndrome is a rare congenital abnormality defined by a clinical triad
of unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ipsilateral ejaculatory duct obstruction.
Case Presentation:
Most patients are asymptomatic, but if the cystic dilatation of the seminal vesicle
becomes significant, it can result in urinary symptoms such as dysuria and urinary retention.
This rare developmental anomaly related to mesonephric duct can also present with other abnormalities.
Conclusion:
Here, we report our experience of Zinner syndrome with bladder outlet obstruction
and an ectopic ureter remnant.
