The clinical curative effect of transurethral resection of the ejaculatory duct for iatrogenic ejaculatory duct obstruction after prostatic hyperthermia.

Transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts for treating ejaculatory symptoms.

OBJECTIVES To report our experience with transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts (TURED) in infertile men with symptomatic ejaculatory duct obstruction (EDO). PATIENTS AND METHODS Before surgery, all patients complained of a decrease in the volume of their ejaculate, 14 of 15 had a non-projectile ejaculation, nine had a genitourinary infection necessitating antibiotic treatment, and ...

Hybrid Method of Transurethral Resection of Ejaculatory Ducts Using Holmium:Yttriumaluminium Garnet Laser on Complete Ejaculatory Duct Obstruction

A 32-year old single man presented with azoospermia and low semen volume which was noted one and half a year ago. Transrectal ultrasonography and seminal vesiculography were performed to evaluate ejaculatory duct obstruction, and transurethral resection of the ejaculatory duct was performed using a hybrid technique of holmium:yttriumaluminium garnet laser with monopolar transurethral resection ...

[Transurethral endoscopic treatment for chronic hematospermia caused by müllerian duct cyst and ejaculatory duct obstruction].

Between June 1997 and September 1999, we performed transurethral unroofing (TUUR) in three patients with hematospermia that recurred repeatedly for one year or more. Patient 1 (48 years old) and Patient 2 (59 years old) were diagnosed as having müllerian duct cysts that communicated with the left ejaculatory duct, and Patient 3 (36 years old) as an ejaculatory duct obstruction with the right ej...
