Tubular ectasia of the epididymis - Radiopaedia. org Tubular ectasia of the epididymis results in enlargement of the epididymis with multiple cystic interfaces It typically occurs in those with a prior vasectomy but can be also seen with other causes of obstruction of the ductus deferens
Tubular Ectasia of Bilateral Epididymis in a Postvasectomy Patient Any obstruction of ductus deferens can cause slow progressive accumulation of sperms which raises pressure on tenuous tubules of the epididymis, leading to their dilatation and cystic change which is referred to as tubular ectasia
Tubular Ectasia of the Epididymis: A Case Report and Literature Review An obstruction in the vas deferens due to various causes may lead to slow, progressive accumulation of sperms, leading to an increase in tenuous tubular pressure of the epididymis, thereby causing dilatation and cystic changes of the epididymis, which is referred to as tubular ectasia
What is the significance of bilateral tubular ectasia in the epididymal . . . Differential Diagnosis for Bilateral Tubular Ectasia in the Epididymal Heads Single most likely diagnosis: + Epididymal spermatocele: This condition is characterized by the formation of cystic structures within the epididymis due to the accumulation of sperm, often resulting in tubular ectasia It is a common and benign condition
Pathology Outlines - Cysts Cysts and cystic dilatations of the epididymis and rete testis (or more rarely, the seminiferous tubule) arise from the tubal epithelium, frequently secondary to obstruction and are more common in adults
Tubular ectasia of the epididymis with dilatational deferentopathia It is usually asymptomatic It results from complete or partial obstruction of the distal seminiferous ducts by a mass or cystic lesion such as a large epididymal head cyst or large spermatocele, or alternatively, from an inflammatory infectious process such as chronic epididymitis
Tubular Ectasia of the Epididymis: A Case Report and . . . - PubMed We report a rare case of tubular ectasia of the epididymis in a 55-year-old patient with palpable scrotal swelling with no prior operative history of vasectomy nor any history of trauma We share this patient's ultrasonography findings along with a literature review of this uncommon disease
