Right ureterovesical junction cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis: a case report of a possible Wolffian duct maldevelopment - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41816660/

This case highlights a rare Wolffian duct-related developmental anomaly distinct from classical Zinner syndrome, emphasizing the importance of recognizing atypical presentations for accurate diagnosis and optimal surgical management.

Case report describes a rare ureterovesical junction cyst with ipsilateral renal agenesis from Wolffian duct maldevelopment; CT enabled diagnosis, and laparoscopic ureterectomy with bladder exploration achieved successful management.
