Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, imaging features, diagnosis and treatment of ejaculatory duct cyst. Methods Fifteen cases of ejaculatory duct cyst in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University were reported and literature was reviewed. Results Of the 15 patients, 13 cases were treated by transurethral fenestration of distal ejaculatory duct cyst and 2 cases were treated by transurethral incision of ejaculatory duct. After incision of cyst, a large number of yellowish or milky white semen and effusion were seen in the typical patients. In 6 cases, small brown stones were rinsed out. In 2 cases there was bloody sediment which was removed by the same method. Seminal vesicle microscopic examination showed that the ejaculation ducts were unobstructed. After operation, the patients recovered well. The patients were followed up for 6-36 months, and no recurrence was found. Conclusions Ejaculatory duct cyst is rare and difficult to diagnosis before operation, and it has diverse imaging manifestations. The transurethral resection is effective for its treatment with the advantages of little surgical trauma, rapid recovery and satisfactory effect.
