title: Primary seminal vesicle hydatidosis with exophytic component.
abstract: We report a rare case of primary seminal vesicle hydatidosis in a 47-year-old male with symptoms of pain on micturition. Computed tomography examination revealed a smooth bordered, multilocular mass-like lesion with fine septations abutting the left seminal vesicle, suggestive of hydatidosis. Pathological study of surgically excised specimen showed hydatidosis of seminal vesicle with large exophytic growth.
