Highlights
Prostatic cysts are rare lesions that may cause compression of the ejaculatory ducts resulting in azoospermia.[1]
The aim of this study was to describe our experience with Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) and TURED as diagnostic and therapeutic tools in the management of ejaculatory duct obstruction caused by prostatic cysts and causing male infertility
We report a clinical case of male infertility to demonstrate the role of TRUS in performing effective TURED for obstructive azoospermia caused by midline cyst
Summary
Prostatic cysts are rare lesions that may cause compression of the ejaculatory ducts resulting in azoospermia.[1]. Introduction: Prostatic cysts are rare lesions that may cause compression of the ejaculatory ducts resulting in azoospermia.[1] Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) may identify midline cysts that may be acquired or congenital.[2,3] Transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts (TURED) may be an effective treatment for obstructive azoospermic infertile men.[4,5] The aim of this study was to describe our experience with TRUS and TURED as diagnostic and therapeutic tools in the management of ejaculatory duct obstruction caused by prostatic cysts and causing male infertility.
