Kyste de la vésicule séminale associé à une agénésie rénale homolatérale: à propos de trois observations

Seminal vesicle cyst associated with homolateral renal agenesis: report of three cases

Resume

L’association d’un kyste de la vésicule séminale (KVS) à une agénésie rénale ipsilatérale est une anomalie congénitale rare. Cependant cette pathologie est de plus en plus diagnostiquée, grâce au progrès de l’imagerie ces dernières années.

Les auteurs rapportent deux observations d’un KVS associé à une agénésie rénale homolatérale et une troisième de même type, associée à une ectopie urétérale. Ils rappellent l’étiopathogénie de cette anomalie séminale et sa relation avec la dysgénésie rénale, et ils revoient les moyens diagnostiques et thérapeutiques possibles dans cette affection.

Abstract

The combination of seminal vesicle cyst and homolateral renal agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly. However, this anomaly is diagnosed more frequently due to progress in medical imaging.

The authors report three cases of seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis in two cases and ectopic ureter in one case. All cases presented nonspecific clinical symptoms.

The diagnosis was suspected on imaging (ultrasound and computed tomography). Treatment was surgical in two cases and endoscopie in one case.

The authors review the literature on the aetiology and pathogenesis of seminal vesicle cyst, its association with homolateral renal agenesis and diagnostic and therapeutic methods.
