A Triad of Unilateral Renal Dysgenesis with Ipsilateral Seminal Vesical and Ejaculatory Duct Obstruction: An Uncommon Urogenital Congenital Anomaly, Zinner Syndrome—A Case Report

Abstract

AbstractZinner syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly of the urogenital system resulting from an in utero insult during the first trimester. This entity comprises a triad of unilateral renal agenesis/dysgenesis with ipsilateral seminal vesical and ejaculatory duct obstruction. This combination of urinary and genital abnormalities occurs because of the closely related embryological origin of these structures from the distal mesonephric (Wolffian) duct. Nearly 200 cases of seminal vesical cysts with ipsilateral renal agenesis have been reported in the literature. The affected person generally presents in early adulthood when the reproductive activity commences. In this report, we present a case of a 22-year-old male with complaints of painful ejaculation.
