title: [Incomplete urethral duplication in a male. A case report].
abstract: Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly affecting mainly males and being usually diagnosed during paedriatric age. We report a 20 year old male complaining of double urethral meatus with double urinary stream. Physical examination confirmed and additional hypospadic meatus below a normally placed urethral meatus. Retrograde urethro-cystography and voiding cysto-urethrograms showed two distinct urethras originating from a common bladder neck and the diagnosis of Effmann type IIA2 incomplete urethral duplication was made. No treatment was felt to be applied after associated anomalies were ruled out.
