ABSTRACT
La dilatación completa unilateral del conducto deferente es un hallazgo radiológico extremadamente raro. La mayoría de las estructuras quísticas adyacentes a la próstata se pueden agrupar en quistes y divertículos. El hallazgo de masas inguinales obliga a descartar la existencia, entre otras entidades, de hernia intestinal. Presentamos el caso de un paciente con masa inguinal secundaria a conducto deferente dilatado de manera unilateral (AU)
The complete unilateral dilation of the vas deferens is an extremely rare radiologic finding. Most cystic structures adjacent to the prostate can be grouped into cysts and diverticula. The finding of an inguinal mass makes it necessary to rule out intestinal hernias and other entities. We present the case of a patient who developed an inguinal mass secondary to unilateral dilation of the vas deferens (AU)
