Anterior Urethral Diverticulum Associated with Posterior Urethral Valves

Abstract The association of anterior urethral diverticulum with posterior urethral valves has not been reported previously. We report a case of anterior urethral diverticulum at the penoscrotal junction and type I posterior urethral valves. Immediate drainage and later fulguration of the posterior valves and marsupialization of the anterior diverticulum yielded a good result. The association of the anterior urethral diverticulum and posterior urethral valves fits the theory of a wide spectrum of mesenchymal defects including megalourethra.
