Abstract:
Urogenital sinus (UGS) is a rare anomaly characterized by a common cavity involving the reproductive and urinary tracts. We describe a patient with VACTERL syndrome who presented for urologic care at 11 years of age due to supposed "recurrent urinary tract infections" and was subsequently found to have UGS in which the vagina connected directly to the bladder. She underwent robotic UGS mobilization to disconnect the vagina from the bladder and vaginoplasty to mature the vagina to the perineum. The objective of this report is to describe the presentation, diagnosis, and management of a patient with rare high confluence UGS.
