Abstract

A 16-year-old boy with penilurethra anomaly was admitted to our clinic. This is a case description of a hypospadiac congenital urethrocutaneous fistula of the anterior urethra. After the chordee was corrected by removing dysgenetic tissue in urethral plate, urethral defect was repaired with tranverse preputial island flap. Congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is rare. Thirty-two cases of urethrocutaneous fistula have been reported previously. Embryological events that cause anterior urethrocutaneous fistula are unclear. We reported a case with hypospadiac congenital urethrocutaneous fistula of the anterior urethra treated with tranverse preputial island flap.
