Abstract
Urethral duplication is a very rare congenital anomaly. Urethral duplication is seen most commonly in the sagittal plane. We report a rare case of complete urethral duplication in the coronal plane with no other associated anomalies. Surgical correction of this coronal urethral duplication resulted in a normal-appearing penis and good functional outcome with a single midline urethral meatus and urinary stream.Keywords
