Abstract

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.
