[Malformations of male internal genitalia originating from the Wolffian duct].

This review includes the description and treatment of the various malformations of the male internal genitalia of Wolffian origin. Congenital epididymal cyst is the most frequent anomaly; it is usually asymptomatic so that surgery is seldom necessary. Agenesis of the deferent is usually discovered during surgery for undescended testis and is frequently associated with a homolateral renal agenesis. Ectopia and duplication are other possible anomalies affecting the deferent. Seminal vesicle cysts is mainly discovered after puberty; pelvic pain and/or urinary symptoms are the main revealing signs. It is frequently associated with other uro-genital anomalies, mainly renal agenesis.
