Abstract: @@ Hematospermia is a rare condition, but often causes frustration. The reason for this frustration is that the exact incidence of hematospermia remains unknown and its cause is difficult to determine.1 Many reports in the past decades have focused on the etiology of hematospermia.2 Hematospermia is treated initially by administration of antibiotics, coagulants, and sex steroid hormones. However, some cases may prove resistant to this therapy and the condition may continue. For some intractable and agnogenic cases, the therapeutic strategy mentioned above is not very effective. Recently, we treated 63 such nonresponsive patients by direct continuous antibiotic irrigation into the bilateral seminal vesicles through puncture under transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) guidance.
