CT and MRI of congenital anomalies of the seminal vesicles

Sandeep S Arora et al. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2007 Jul.

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this article is to provide a current review of the spectrum of CT and MRI findings seen in common congenital anomalies of the seminal vesicles.

Conclusion: CT and MRI can both accurately show renal and seminal vesicle anomalies. Seminal vesicle anomalies often occur concurrently with renal and vasal defects. MRI is a better tool for accurately defining anatomic relationships when one is planning to excise a seminal vesicle cyst or if one is considering a difficult differential diagnosis.
