This case report details a rare congenital condition, urethral duplicity (congenital prepubic sinus), presenting as a blind accessory urethra. Surgical removal successfully treated the condition, with the patient remaining asymptomatic post-procedure.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Congenital Malformations

Background:

  • Urethral duplicity, specifically the blind epispadias variant (congenital prepubic sinus), is a rare congenital anomaly.
  • This condition involves an accessory urethral passage that does not communicate with the bladder.

Observation:

  • A single case of congenital prepubic sinus is presented.
  • The patient experienced recurrent episodes of mucopurulent drainage.
  • No other congenital malformations were identified in the patient.

Findings:

  • Surgical excision of the accessory urethra was performed.
  • The procedure resulted in a complete cure of the condition.
  • The patient remained asymptomatic during a follow-up period exceeding two years.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the successful surgical management of congenital prepubic sinus.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention can lead to favorable outcomes for this rare anomaly.
  • Further research into the embryology and long-term management of urethral duplications is warranted.
