Fertility restoration by seminal tract washout in ejaculatory duct obstruction.

A complex case of secondary sterility due to excretory azoospermia-dry ejaculation is reported. Transrectal ultrasonography and vaso-vesiculography revealed post-inflammatory total obstruction of the right ejaculatory duct. Excluding small radiolucent concrements in the seminal vesicle, no anatomical anomalies were identified on the left side. By performing antegrade seminal tract washout with saline solution it was possible to clear both seminal ducts and restore fertility in our patient. In select cases seminal tract washout may be a valid alternative to the conventional transurethral surgical approach for acquired obstruction of the ejaculatory ducts.
