AB  - Urethral diverticula are sac like dilations of the urethra
and are classified as either congenital or acquired.
While diverticula are commonly seen in female
patients, they are rarely seen in men. The most
common etiologies of male acquired diverticula include
urethral trauma, stricture, abscess or post-hypospadias
repair. We report a case of an acquired urethral
diverticula secondary to unrepaired penile fracture and
urethral injury and review the literature on the topic.
