Abstract:
The presence of multiple urethras is a rare congenital anomaly. Virtually all occur in the sagittal plane with the anomalous urethra dorsal or ventral to its more normal mate. Those children with complete and incomplete forms of accessory urethras will usually present when they are observed b have two urinary streams. We present a case of complete duplication of urethra in a 20-year-old male with brief review of literature.
