title: Urethral diverticula.
abstract: Urethral diverticula are more common than heretofore thought, and the suspicion must always be high in the clinician's mind. Specifically aided by urethroscopy, positive pressure urethrography, and urodynamics, the physician can determine the number of diverticula and their role in underlying continence mechanisms. This should lead to more objective surgical decisions with better results.
