A duplicated Urethra with epispadias: An uncommon association

Abstract

Epispadias is a malformation of the urethra in which the urethral opening ends on the dorsum of the penis. It is considered a rare anomaly, especially when associated with urethral duplication. Urethral duplication is another congenital anomaly that has different clinical manifestations and a separate classification. In this case, we present a 4-year-old boy who underwent epispadias repair and was found to have an accidently duplicated urethra of Effiman's Type ⅡA during the operation. Excision of the accessory urethra was performed, and the patient tolerated the procedure well.
