“…More recently, however, several institutions have described success with a laparoscopic approach in both adult and pediatric patients. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] We report the first known description of a robot-assisted cystic seminal vesicle excision in a pediatric patient. A 16-year-old boy presented with a 3-month history of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and right testicular swelling.…”

Seminal vesicle cysts associated with other genitourologic abnormalities are rare. We describe the first known robot-assisted excision of a cystic seminal vesicle associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis in a symptomatic pediatric patient. The patient was discharged home on postoperative day 1 and remains symptom free after 9 months' follow-up. Operative time, blood loss, and hospital stay were comparable to those of published series of conventional laparoscopy.

“…Most seminal vesicle cysts are congenital, while two-thirds are associated with other urological anomalies, including renal dysplasia or agenesis and ectopic ureter [2]. Although the majority of cases remain asymptomatic, the cysts that become symptomatic usually require surgery for the alleviation of signs [3].…”

Seminal vesicle abscesses associated with ipsilateral multicystic dysplastic kidney in an infant

Seminal vesicle cysts are rare lesions and usually asymptomatic. However, when symptoms occur it is typically during the early sexually active period. Furthermore, seminal vesicle abscesses (SVAs) are extremely rare and often difficult to diagnose due to the absence of any typical clinical signs. We herein describe a 2-month-old boy with a left SVA and ipsilateral multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) who presented with a recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI). Magnetic resonance imaging proved to be a valuable diagnostic tool in our patient. Percutaneous transrectal puncture and aspiration were performed, because of recurrent UTI when intravenous antibiotic therapy had been stopped. Three weeks after the procedure, however, the SVA recurred, and, therefore, a transperitoneal laparoscopic excision of the left SVA, ureteral remnant and dysplastic renal tissue was performed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of infantile SVA associated with ipsilateral MCDK. Pediatric clinicians should consider this urological anomaly in boys presenting with intractable UTI, although it is extremely rare.
