Zinner’s Syndrome – The Value of Clinical Imaging and Morphopathological Findings for Diagnosis

Abstract

Introduction: Cystic congenital malformations of the seminal vesicle are unusual. More than half of them are associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis. This disease was first described by Zinner in 1914, and since then, more than 200 cases have been reported. Most of the patients with this congenital disease present few symptoms until the middle-age.
