Zusammenfassung:Zinner Syndrome is a rare urogenital tract anomaly with unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ipsilateral ejaculatory duct obstruction. The syndrome occurs due to an insult to the development of the paramesonephric duct during embryogenesis. Patients may present late due to dysejaculation as a result of obstruction of the ejaculatory duct or commonly remain asymptomatic. Here, we present such a case presenting with dysejaculation which was diagnosed with Zinner syndrome on ultrasound.
