[Transrectal ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy for Müllerian duct cyst accompanied with ejaculatory duct obstruction].
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transrectal ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy in the treatment of Müllerian duct cyst accompanied with ejaculatory duct obstruction.


METHODS
Under the transrectal ultrasound guidance, 3 cases of prostate Müllerian duct cyst were treated by 20 G needle puncture and ethanol injection, and closely followed up by ultrasonic monitored on follow-up examinations.


RESULTS
All the cysts involuted completely 6 months after the treatment. Symptoms caused by ejaculatory duct obstruction were relieved in all the patients. No severe complications occurred.


CONCLUSIONS
Transrectal ultrasound-guided ethanol sclerotherapy is an effective and safe method for the treatment of Müllerian duct cyst accompanied with ejaculatory duct obstruction.
