description We present the case of a 51-year-old male with Zinner syndrome, which is a rare disease, resulting from an abnormal evolution of the mesonephric (Wolffian) duct. It consists in cystic dilations of one seminal vesicle and/or ejaculatory duct and ipsilateral renal agenesis. It leads to symptoms related to urination, ejaculation, even infertility, and to low-abdomen and perineal pain. The diagnosis is set by ultrasonography, CT scan and, mainly, MRI. Usually it is treated conservatively, but certain cases require surgery, nowadays minimally invasive.
