  • Title: [Blind ureter ending in ejaculatory duct. Report of a case].
    Author: Castellanos González L, Capdevila Hernández JM, Lanzas Prieto JM, Senén González Tuero J, González Naranjo F.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1996 Oct; 49(8):864-7. PubMed ID: 9065286.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: Herein we describe a case of an extremely uncommon malformation of the genitourinary system in a patient who had consulted for epididymitis. METHODS: Patient evaluation included radiological examination, IVP, US, CT and DVG The latter method was essential in the diagnosis of the malformation. RESULTS: The findings indicated left renal agenesis with blind left ureter opening to the ipsilateral ejaculatory duct, with severe deformity of the left seminal vesicle and ejaculatory duct. CONCLUSIONS: Since the patient has no important symptoms at the present time, contrary to the widely accepted approach, surgery has not been performed due to the risk of causing an iatrogenic lesion.
