Summary
Male congenital urethral fistula is an extremely rare condition [1,2,3]. It is usually an isolated anomaly but sometimes associated with genitourinary or anorectal anomalies [1, 3]. It is characterized by fistulisation of the penile urethra to the skin with a normal urethral meatus [3]. Sometimes, it can be confused with hypospadias [4]. We present the case of a 1-month-old boy with congenital urethral fistula associated with a genitourinary anomaly (right cryptorchidism)
