description Ejaculatory duct reflux is rare and few investigations have focused on this entity, which is usually described in children. This study reports a new case of unilateral ejaculatory reflux in a 32-year-old patient, with a history of urethroplasty at the age of 5 for hypospadias, who presented for right chronic scrotal swelling. Urethrocystscopy showed an anterior urethral stricture and a gaping opening of the right ejaculatory duct. CT scan with opacification through the right ejaculatory duct, showed a dilated right seminal vesicle, associated to a reflux in the right deferent vas and epididymis, which was dilated explaining the scrotal swelling.
