Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Ectopic location of the vas deferens is a rare congenital abnormality that has a spectrum of presentations. Such cases have been associated with anorectal anomalies. Knowledge of distal Wolffian duct embryology may help to explain the developmental steps involved in these anomalies, as well as provide theories for the variations that may be encountered. Vas deferens development is reviewed, and two cases of vas ectopia are presented to illustrate and lend support to current theories of normal and abnormal vasal embryology. |
