    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Urology
    • Adult Urology

    Background:

    • Anterior urethral valves (AUVs) are uncommon congenital obstructions of the male urethra.
    • Diagnosis and management can be challenging, particularly in atypical presentations.
    • Literature on AUVs is limited, with few reported cases.

    Observation:

    • This report details two distinct cases of anterior urethral valves.
    • Case 1 involved a pediatric patient with co-existing renal osteodystrophy.
    • Case 2 presented the first documented instance of AUVs in an adult patient.

    Findings:

    • The two cases represent the 13th and 14th documented instances of anterior urethral valves globally.
    • The findings highlight the potential for AUVs to manifest across a wide age spectrum.

  • Concurrent conditions, such as renal osteodystrophy, may influence presentation and diagnosis.

    • Implications:

    • These cases expand the clinical understanding of anterior urethral valves.
    • The adult presentation suggests a need for increased awareness in diagnosing obstructive uropathies in adults.
    • Further research is warranted to elucidate the full spectrum of AUVs and their long-term outcomes.
