Özet

Zinner syndrome (ZS) was first described by Zinner in 1914. This condition includes unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ejaculatory duct obstruction. ZS treatments ranging from medical drug therapy to laparoscopic interventions have been investigated in the literature. A 21-year-old patient presented with scrotal pain after ejaculation. The diagnosis was Zinner's syndrome, and the patient underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic excision of the left seminal vesicle cyst. After 2 years, transurethral ejaculatory duct resection (TUR-ED) was performed at a single center because of symptomatic dilatation in the seminal vesicles. The patient's 1-year urological follow-up after TUR-ED remained normal. This presentation is a case report of a single patient and two cases that are rare in the literature. Cyst aspiration and seminal cyst excision may be considered as first-line treatment options, but the possibility of recurrence should not be forgotten. Even if seminal cyst excision is performed, it should be kept in mind that TUR-ED may be required in the future.
