Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Zinner syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly.
  • It arises from abnormal mesonephric (Wolffian) duct development.
  • Characterized by seminal vesicle cysts and ipsilateral renal agenesis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case of Zinner syndrome.
  • To highlight diagnostic modalities.
  • To discuss management strategies for this rare condition.

Main Methods:

  • Case presentation of a 51-year-old male.
  • Diagnostic workup included ultrasonography, CT scan, and MRI.
  • Review of current treatment approaches.

Main Results:

  • The patient presented with symptoms of Zinner syndrome.
  • Imaging confirmed cystic dilations of the seminal vesicle/ejaculatory duct and renal agenesis.
  • Diagnosis was established via MRI.

Conclusions:

  • Zinner syndrome requires a high index of suspicion for diagnosis.
  • Multimodality imaging is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
  • Management is typically conservative but may necessitate minimally invasive surgery.
