Duplication of the male urethra treated by septotomy. A case report

In a case of incomplete duplication of the male urethra the interurethral septum was divided by scissors. After this simple operative procedure, the patient was relieved of his obstructive symptoms. Postoperative urethrography revealed considerable improvement of the calibre of the urethral lumen, and uroflowmetry showed almost normalized flow values. This technique is recommended as treatment in similar cases.
