Abstract
in English, French

We report the case of a patient with symptomatic seminal vesicle cyst on the right side. Imaging examinations (pelvic and endorectal ultrasound, abdominal-pelvic tomodensitometry and MRI) were perdormed and the patient underwent surgical removal of the cyst. In light of this case study, epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment options are discussed.

Nous rapportons le cas d’un patient présentant un kyste de la vésicule séminale droite symptomatique. Au terme du bilan (échographie pelvienne et endo-rectale, tomodensitométrie abdomino-pelvienne et l’imagerie par résonance magnétique), le patient était opéré et bénéficiait d’une ablation du kyste. A la lumière de cette observation, l’épidémiologie, le diagnostic et les options thérapeutiques sont discutés.

Keywords: Cyst; laparoscopy; renal agenesis; seminal vesicle.
