Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly with several anatomical variations. Persistence of duplicated urethra and related sphincter mechanism are mainly the reasons for the symptoms. We here present a 9-month-old boy with a rare form of duplication with each portion of the duplicated bladder having its own urethral opening.
