This study details a rare congenital prepubic sinus, a bladder defect extending to the skin. Surgical excision was performed for this unusual midline closure defect.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Developmental Biology

Background:

  • Congenital anomalies of the genitourinary tract require careful diagnosis and management.
  • Midline closure defects can manifest in various forms, impacting multiple structures.

Observation:

  • A rare case of a congenital prepubic sinus is presented.
  • The sinus tract extended from the anterior bladder wall through the rectus fascia to the skin.
  • Clinical presentation included intermittent erythema and discharge.

Findings:

  • Exploration and surgical excision were performed for the prepubic sinus.
  • Histopathological analysis confirmed the nature of the lesion.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of congenital midline closure defects.
  • The prepubic sinus may represent a forme fruste of more complex developmental anomalies.
  • Recognition of this entity is crucial for appropriate surgical intervention in affected infants.
