Zinner Syndrome: A Case Report of a Rare Etiology of Infertility.

Infertility is a common medical issue with different etiologies. It can be related to female factors, male factors, or factors related to both partners. We report the case of a 35-year-old male patient who presented with primary infertility for 10 years. He was otherwise healthy with unremarkable past medical history. Physical examination revealed normal external genitalia with both testes were normal in size. Basic semen analysis revealed decreased sperm volume and sperm count. Abdominal ultrasound examination revealed an absent right kidney. Subsequently, the patient under a computed tomography scan that confirmed the right renal agenesis and demonstrated a well-defined right seminal vesicle cyst. Such findings were consistent with the diagnosis of Zinner syndrome. He underwent aspiration of the cyst that resulted in improvement in the sperm parameter of basic semen analysis. The case demonstrated a rare etiology of male infertility that was successfully managed conservatively. Despite its rarity, physicians should consider the developmental anomalies of the genitourinary system when encountering patients with infertility.
