Electroejaculation with a rectal probe was used successfully for semen recovery 8 years after bilateral suprarenal hilar lymph node dissection for stage IIB embryonal cell cancer. An adequate ejaculate was obtained in relation to total sperm count, motility and normal morphology. Prior use of sympathomimetic drugs, including imipramine and ephedrine, was unsuccessful in producing an ejaculation. Electrostimulation via a rectal probe seems to be a useful technique for semen recovery in the patient with anejaculation after retroperitoneal lymph node dissection.
