Abstract |
Ejaculatory duct obstruction is a rare but correctable cause of male infertility. Standard therapy is transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts, which is frequently complicated by seminal vesicle urinary reflux and is contraindicated when the obstruction is located outside the prostate gland. Herein, we report a minimally invasive technique that successfully dilated the ejaculatory duct without complications in a patient with unilateral, complete ejaculatory duct obstruction located outside the prostate.
