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.
