A variant of Zinner syndrome with ectopic ureteral insertion into the seminal vesicle

Zinner syndrome comprises a triad of unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ejaculatory duct obstruction, which can be accompanied by additional abnormalities of the genitourinary tract in some cases. Patients may be asymptomatic or present with urinary, reproductive, and/or local pain symptoms. Diagnosis is most commonly achieved via MRI. Here, we present the case of an 18-year-old male previously diagnosed with unilateral renal agenesis, who presented with testicular and penile pain, along with urinary urgency and frequency. MRI of the abdomen and pelvis revealed all three components of Zinner syndrome as well as an ectopic ureter emptying into the seminal vesicle. Our case adds to the existing limited literature on this rare syndrome and broadens the understanding of how this syndrome can present both clinically and radiologically.
