Laparoscopic Excision of Congenital Seminal Vesicle Cyst Associated with Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

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.
