The major purpose of the present study was to investigate the efficacy and feasibility of the Mullerian duct cyst treatment by transurethral electrotomy combined with seminal vesiculoscopy. The clinical data of 20 aspermia patients who presented with Mullerian Cyst between March 2009 and March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed in the present study. Semen specimens of all patients were obtained by masturbation or sperm collector and diagnosed as aspermia by semen analysis (including sperm count, semen volume, sperm density, pH and fructose level). By transrectal ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging and testicular biopsy, the diagnosis of Mullerian cyst inducing obstruction aspermia was correctly identified. All patients were treated with the combination of transurethral resection and seminal vesiculoscopy. The operation time was 30–50 min. The follow-up duration after the operation was 12 months. All subjects included in the present study successfully underwent the operation. The semen quality of all patients was greatly improved and sperms were detected in semen specimens. The semen routine examination results of 3 consecutive follow-up exams within 12 months were within the normal range. The ejaculate volume and semen fructose levels were significantly higher than those prior to surgery (P<0.05). Furthermore, at 12 months post-operatively, the seminal vesicles of 6 patients were smaller than at the pre-operative stage. In conclusion, transurethral resection combined with seminal vesiculoscopy may be an effective and feasible option for the treatment of patients with Mullerian duct cyst.
