Novel Presentation of Complete Coronal Urethral Duplication: a Case Report
Authors
Abstract:
Urethralduplication is a rare condition occurs as a congenital malformation either independently or in the setting of other congenital malformations such as caudal duplication syndrome. Its prevalence becomes even rarer if it manifests as two side-by-side tracts in coronal plan.Nonetheless, we introduce a unique presentation of complete coronal urethral duplication accompanied by astounding manifestations of gastrointestinal malformations different from what is expected for a normal hind gut or caudal duplication syndrome. A 6-year-old boy with complete coronal duplication of urethra along with duplication of appendix, sigmoid and rectum as well as developmental delay, attracted our attention to report.

Urethral duplication is a very rare congenital anomaly. Urethral duplication is seen most commonly in the sagittal plane. We report a rare case of complete urethral duplication in the coronal plane with no other associated anomalies. Surgical correction of this coronal urethral duplication resulted in a normal-appearing penis and good functional outcome with a single midline urethral meatus and...

tion is a rare congenital anomaly (1, 2). Physical examination undoubtedly remains the primary step in the initial evaluation of the patient and is usually sufficient for defining abnormal external structures. Traditional retrograde urethrography demonstrates the extent of the anomaly. However, it cannot provide detailed anatomic information of the adjacent tissues surrounding the duplicated ur...

Pompe disease, also termed glycogen storage disease type II or acid maltase deficiency, caused by deficient activity of acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA), the glycogen degrading lysosomal enzyme. As a result, massive lysosomal glycogen deposits in the numerous organs including the muscles. In Pompe disease weakness of truncal muscles is a prominent presentation which results in respiratory failure a...

Duplication of the lower urinary tract is a very rare congenital anomaly which is diagnosed either at birth or during early childhood. These rare malformations are most of the times accompanied by other concomitant anomalies and are therefore diagnosed immediately after birth. In some even rarer cases there are no concomitant anomalies and symptoms thus leading to a diagnosis later in childhood...
