Case Report Calculi in lower aplastic ureter with ipsilateral agenetic seminal vesicle opening to mimicking seminal vesicular calculi: a case report

چکیده
Unilateral renal aplasia (URA), which belongs to congenital solitary functioning kidney (CSFK), may lead to renal failure in patient’s later life. URA is often associated with other malformations, among which urological anomalies are the most common ones. Herein, we present a case of a 52-year-old man with the left URA and aplastic ureter with ipsilateral seminal vesicle opening to (AUISVO). The stone in the lower aplastic ureter resembled seminal vesicular calculi in imaging features, which resulted into the initial misdiagnosis. This indicates that the aplastic ureteral calculi must be taken into consideration when patients with CSFK are presented with symptoms and imaging characteristics of seminal vesicular calculi. To our best knowledge, this is the first case that the lower ureteral calculi in AUISVO imitates seminal vesicular calculi.

Primary adenocarcinoma of the seminal vesicles is a rare neoplasm. Congenital seminal vesicle cysts are commonly associated with unilateral renal agenesis or dysgenesis. To the best of our knowledge, mucinous adenocarcinoma of the seminal vesicle cyst that's associated with an ectopic ureter opening into the seminal vesicle and ipsilateral renal agenesis has not been described in the radiologic...

Few cases of unilateral renal agenesis associated with ipsilateral seminal vesicle ectasia or cyst have been reported.

Seminal vesicular lithiasis or seminal vesicular and ejaculatory duct calculi or calcification are rarely encountered with very few cases reported in the literature. We aim to present and review the literature of one such case. A search of the published English literature revealed only 20 published case reports of seminal vesicle calculi, with only three attributed to large bilateral seminal ve...

An extremely rare case of seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal dysplasia and ectopic ureter is presented. A 36-year-old patient underwent nephroureterovesiculectomy. Considering the clinical and imaging profile of the patient, a diagnosis of ureterocele with megaureter was initially suspected, but intraoperative findings and definitive pathological analysis of the specimen rev...
