Müllerian duct, laparoscopy, testicular sperm extraction (TESE)

A 27-year-old male patient was diagnosed with Müllerian duct persistence syndrome. Seminal vesicles and uteri were observed through transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy combined with laparoscopy, and the uterus was found to be connected to the urethra, while one of the openings was found in the verumontanum. Müllerian remnants were removed laparoscopically. Subsequently, micro-TESE was performed and sperms were observed.
