Seminal vesicle cysts can also be mimicked by various conditions, including obstruction of the seminal vesicles, ejaculatory duct, or vas deferens. Other conditions that can mimic seminal vesicle cysts include a dilated ectopic ureter, ureterocele, Müllerian duct cyst, prostatic utricular cyst, and ejaculatory duct cyst.

Seminal Vesicle Cysts
Seminal vesicle cysts can occur in a number of conditions. Bilateral seminal vesicle cysts (seen in this image) occur in about 50% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Congenital seminal vesicle cysts are associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis or dysgenesis in 2/3 of cases. Other associations include agenesis of the vas deferens or ectopic ureteral insertion into the seminal vesicle, ejaculatory duct, vas deferens or prostatic urethra.
