Transurethral Treatment of a Seminal Vesicle Cyst With Lithiasis: Case Report.
Article in Case reports in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Seminal vesicle cyst (SVC) is a rare condition that can arise from congenital or acquired causes. In this report, we describe the case of a 33-year-old male who was incidentally discovered to have SVC and seminal vesicle stones following complaints of abdominal pain. He presented to the emergency department with these symptoms, which prompted further investigation and diagnosis. Computerized tomography (CT) scan revealed diverticulitis and a fluid attenuation lesion within the right aspect of the prostate gland. He was referred to urology, and further evaluation showed a right SVC of 1.8 × 1.5 × 1.5 cm on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient underwent endoscopic drainage of the SVC via transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy (TRU-SVS) and holmium laser incision. Three stones ranging from 2 to 4 mm were identified and removed with N-gage basket from the seminal vesicle resulting in successful removal of the stones and restoration of the ejaculatory duct's patency. Follow-up visits showed resolution of pain and an improvement in semen volume. This case report highlights the importance of considering SVC as a differential diagnosis in male patients presenting with such symptoms. TRU-SVS is a feasible and effective treatment option for SVC and associated seminal vesicle stones.
