Male urethral diverticulum is an uncommon condition typically caused by previous surgeries, inflammation, or trauma. There are very few case reports of primary male urethral diverticulum, with only one report linking it to ejaculatory problems. In this report, we present a rare case of congenital male urethral diverticulum who presented with lower urinary tract symptoms and anejaculation that was successfully treated through open urethral diverticulectomy.
