Abstract
Urethral duplication are rare anomalies of the lower urinary tract consisting of partial or complete development of an accessory urethra that common in males than female. The exact embryological mechanism for this condition remain unclear, it is thought to relate to a disruption of development of the lateral folds of Rathke during hindgut development. There are 3 types based on Effman's classification. Diagnosis of urethral duplication, a genital examination has to performed and confirmed by micturating cytourethrography and retrograde urethrography. The authors presented a case of 67-year-old man complaining of dysuria, who was diagnosed with urethral duplication Effman Classification type IIB accompanied by bulbar urethral stricture and diverticula and multiple bladder diverticula after performing retrograde urethrography and micturating cystourethrography. This is an extremely rare type of duplication of the urethra (type IIB) with late presentation. Further study may be required regarding the surgical management.
