A Müllerian duct cyst (MDC) is the persistent remnant of the Müllerian duct. Reports of symptomatic cases are rare, signs and symptoms include perineal pain, dysuria, infertility, hematuria and genital inflammation. The prevalence of MDC has been previously reported as 4% of newborns and 1% in adult males. Herein we report six cases encountered in the past year. Our detection percentage was 1% and is compatible with the reported values. The imaging evaluation of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with MDC is discussed as well as the apparent discrepancy between the number of previously reported cases and the reported prevalence.
苗勒管囊肿（MDC）是苗勒管的持续残留部分。有症状病例的报告很少见，体征和症状包括会阴部疼痛、排尿困难、不孕、血尿和生殖器炎症。此前报道MDC在新生儿中的患病率为4%，在成年男性中为1%。在此，我们报告过去一年中遇到的6例病例。我们的检出率为1%，与报道值相符。本文讨论了有症状和无症状MDC患者的影像学评估，以及先前报道的病例数与报道患病率之间明显的差异。
