Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Epispadias is a congenital anomaly of the urethra.
  • Posterior epispadias involves abnormal urethral development.
  • Urethral duplication anomalies are uncommon congenital malformations.

Observation:

  • A case of posterior epispadias was identified.
  • A complete ventral urethra was unexpectedly discovered during urethroplasty.
  • This finding suggests an underlying urethral duplication.

Findings:

  • The case presented a rare form of urethral duplication.
  • The anomaly was associated with posterior epispadias.
  • The ventral urethra was only evident during surgical intervention.

Implications:

  • This condition should be considered in the diagnosis of isolated posterior epispadias.
  • Accurate diagnosis of urethral duplication is crucial for appropriate surgical management.
  • Understanding rare urethral malformations improves pediatric urological care.
