Abstract
We report a 4-year-old boy with a hitherto undescribed case of abortive epispadiac duplication of the urethra presenting as a blind-ending penopubic sinus proximally and a mucosa-lined groove overlying the glanular corona distally but with absent midurethra. The patient was treated for cosmetic reasons with good results. A plausible embryological genesis of this defect is discussed.Entities:
