Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in a Patient With Zinner Syndrome: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Zinner syndrome is a rare congenital urogenital anomaly characterized by seminal vesicle cysts, ejaculatory duct obstruction, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Surgical treatment for prostate cancer in this setting has been reported in only 2 previous cases.
