A 24-year-old male presented with voiding lower urinary tract symptoms. On evaluation, the patient was found to have midbulbar urethral stricture and right dysplastic pelvic kidney with right vesicoureteral reflux. A micturating cystourethrogram (MCUG) shows opacification of the right vas deferens along the entire course till the testis. The patient underwent end-to-end urethroplasty. But soon the patient presented with urinary tract infection (UTI) and epididymorchitis in the follow-up period. The patient was explored laparoscopically to remove dysplastic kidney and ectopic vas deferens. Laparoscopically, the testicular end of the left vas deferens entering the deep inguinal ring was clipped and cut. Also the dysplastic kidney and ureter were removed till the vesicoureteral junction. At 1 year of follow-up, the patient is voiding well with no episodes of UTI.
