Cystoscopy and mucosectomy: Essentials in the management of persistent m üllerian duct syndrome with transverse testicular ectopia.

CONCLUSIONS: Removal of Müllerian duct remnantsis advised in order to reduce the jeopardy of malignancy, urinary tract infections, stones and hematuria. On the other hand, excision down to urethra which can compromise the integrity and vascularity of the vas deferens is diffucult, even in experienced surgical hands. Complete excision of these structures by mucosectomy of the distal part of remnant which lay closed to vas deferens is a safe and effective method. Cystoscopy assistance and placement of a catheter into MDRs were essential for the complete excision of this mucosa. To the best of our knowledge, cystoscopy assisted mucosectomy in Persistent Müllerian Duct Syndrome has not been reported previously. PMID: 32240113 [PubMed - in process]
