Vesiculographic Findings in Cysts of the Seminal Vesicle

Open publisher page 18 citations

Abstract

Vasoseminal vesiculography showed medial displacement and stretching of the ampulla of the vas deferens in 3 patients with cysts of the seminal vesicle. In 2 a nonopacified mass separated the ampulla from the ipsilateral seminal vesicle. All 3 patients were managed without surgical intervention. If such a vesiculographic pattern is seen in a patient with a paraprostatic mass, the contents of the mass should be aspirated and contrast material injected to document its cystic nature.
