A ductus deferens cyst (also known as a vas deferens cyst) is a type of juxtaprostatic - extraprostatic cyst. They are usually located along the course of the ductus deferens and superior to the prostate. They can arise from congenital abnormalities of the vas deferens or acquired causes such as infection, obstruction or neoplasia.
