Oligospermia secondary to müllerian duct cyst. Simple surgical cure.

R D Hassler, C H Weber.   

Abstract

Fertility evaluation of a twenty-three-year-old male with severe oligospermia revealed a müllerian duct cyst that appeared to compress both ejaculatory ducts. Simple endoscopic unroofing of the cyst was followed by disappearance of the mass felt rectally, improvement of the radiographic appearance of the seminal tracts, and a return of the seminal analyses to well within fertile range. Müllerian duct cysts may be a rare cause of surgically correctable male infertility. Endoscopic unroofing of small müllerian duct cysts appears to be the treatment of choice in young males in whom there is concern for preserving fertility and potency.
