Abstract

Abstract Duplication of the urethra is a rare congenital anomaly, predominantly seen in males. Due to the rarity of the condition, there is no fixed consensus regarding the management of these patients. We report the case of a 4-year-old male child who presented with phimosis and balanoposthitis, with the occasional double stream of urine and was incidentally found to have duplication of the urethra. Cystoscopy revealed the duplication to be Effman Type II A-1. No surgical intervention was done for the duplication as the patient was asymptomatic. Our aim is to report this rare case and to enhance the knowledge by reviewing the already existing scanty literature of this rare condition.
