A Large Congenital Anterior Urethral Diverticulum in a 14-Month-Old Boy.
Curēus 2021 September
Congenital anterior urethral diverticulum is a rare condition causing lower urinary tract obstruction in children. It usually arises from the ventral aspect of the anterior urethra, mostly located at the penoscrotal junction. We report a case of a 14-month-old baby boy who presented with a soft ventral swelling over the distal penile urethra, difficulty in passing urine, and a history of recurrent febrile urinary tract infections. A retrograde urethrogram revealed a large distal anterior urethral diverticulum. He underwent diverticulectomy and primary repair with no post-operative complications. The treatment of these depends on the size of the diverticulum and the degree of obstruction. In cases of a large anterior urethral diverticulum, open diverticulectomy and primary repair are recommended.
