A Rare Case Report of Urethral Duplication in Male
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 12
Abstract
Urethral duplication is a very rare condition – only about 200 cases have been described in medical literature..This congenital anomaly is characterized by two urethras, which may be either partial or complete. One urethra is usually normal and the other is an accessory urethra. Accessory urethras may be present dorsal to, ventral to or next to the normal urethra. Rarely, accessory urethras may communicate with the prostatic ducts and seminal vesicles. When the accessory urethra is in the dorsal position, the external meatus can be epispadiac; if in the ventral position, the accessory urethra is usually hypospadiac, and the external urethra can open anywhere from the glans to the penoscrotal junction. The latter may resemble a congenital urethra–perineal fistula
