Abstract
Zinner’s syndrome is a very rare congenital condition characterised by seminal vesicle cyst, obstruction of the ejaculatory duct and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Here, we present a 25-year- old young short-statured male presented with left lower abdominal colicky pain. MRI abdomen showed the absence of the left kidney with a seminal vesicle cyst on the left side. The cyst in question was laparoscopically de-roofed. A second case is a 16-years-old young male who presented with intermittent lower abdominal pain. MRI abdomen showed seminal vesicle cyst with ipsilateral absent kidney which is managed conservatively with medication. Level of evidence: Not applicable
