Journal Title: Pediatric Urology Case Reports - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Urethral duplication is a rare congenital malformation with multiple clinical manifestations. Here, we present a case involving a boy with hypospadiac urethral duplication and multiple congenital anomalies. The patient had additional anomalies including a posterior urethral valve, left vesicoureteral reflux and right renal agenesis. This case is discussed in terms of the type of urethral duplication and the importance of additional anomalies.
