On examination no external urethral opening c?1' | be found. In the normal position of the extei meatus a slight depression was present. The Pre^he was short and curled up at the corona glandis. 1 glans penis was bare and not covered by the prep11 No other abnormality was detected in the child. A small incision was made along the depressed a. and a thick membrane was incised and an opening found. A fine rubber catheter was introduced throi the opening and it went right into the bladder & about 2 drachms of high-coloured urine was drawn 0 ^ The _ history of passage of urine per anum Vr}?Tnce operation could not be elicited. Therefore the exi^te of any communication between the bladder and rectum could not. be ascertained.
