Abstract

Urethra duplication is a rare anomaly with numerous anatomic variations. These fall into four main groups: epispadiac, hypospadiac, fusiform, and Y-type. We report on one case of sagittal incomplete hypospadiac anterior duplication of the urethra. Surgical repair consisted of incision of the septum between the two urethras and hypospadias repair at the same setting. Follow-up was characterized by the occurrence of some complications.
