The malformation was characterized by the presence of continent hypospadic and normal apical urethra. Retrograde urethrogram through both urethral tracts simultaneously revealed the malformation as Effmann ...

Diphallia is an extremely rare embryological anomaly, occurring once in 5–6 million births. Here we discuss a neonate who was referred for surgical consultation of diphallia, which examination revealed dominant right phallus and apparently shorter left phallus. MRI retrograde urethrogram unique pathway the urethra stenosed, but otherwise normal urethra. The decision made to excise associated du...

conclusions silodosin use prior to vcug confers a statistically significant increase in bladder neck opening and visualization of posterior urethra. results in group a 19 out of 20 patients were able to achieve satisfactory bladder neck opening while in group b 10 out of 15 patients were able to achieve bladder neck opening. patients and methods patients were divided into two groups a and b con...

OBJECTIVE To determine the role of ascending urethrogram in decision making for patients with suspected urethral strictures. METHODS Medical Records were reviewed of male patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms who were subjected to ascending urethrogram and selected cases for cystourethroscopy from January 2001 to December 2002. Cystourethroscopy was performed on those patients...
