[Infected cystic malformations of a seminal vesicle with ipsilateral uretero-renal agenesis. Description and discussion of the surgical approach].

The author reports a case of rare malformation affecting all of the elements derived from the Wolffian duct, the embryology of which is briefly reviewed. The clinical picture, as in the majority of previously published cases, was initially suggestive of acute prostatitis, but clinical, radiological and ultrasonographic examination revealed the malformation. The treatment is surgical and most authors prefer an intra-peritoneal transvesical approach.
