Congenital prepubic sinus

1996 
: Presentation of one case of Urethral Duplicity of the Blind Epispadias variant, also known as Congenital Prepubic Sinus. This form of accessory urethra is a congenital malformation which consists in a pseudofistular passage which starts at the proximity of the bladder's anterior side-though uncommunicated with it-and spreads to the skin of the pubic area where it ends. No other malformative condition was found in the comprehensive study conducted, and only the existence of repeat episodes of mucopurulent drainage material advised its removal. This manoeuvre was followed by a complete cure and, after more than two years follow-up, the patient remains asymptomatic.
