title: An unusual case of complete urethral duplication in a female child.
abstract: A case is reported of a female child with complete urethral duplication draining a single bladder and with the accessory urethra communicating with the urachus. The clinical, operative and histological findings suggest that the urethral duplication may represent an abortive duplication of the bladder.
